1. Toss the beef with some flour to lightly coat.

2. Brown the pieces in the butter, fishing them out of the pot with a slotted spoon and setting them aside as they're done.

3. Slice the onions into rounds and brown them in the same pot, add a ladle of broth (I would guess about 1/2 cup) and scrape the bottom of the pot and simmer until the broth has evaporated.

4. Add the meat and the spices, salt and sugar if you like. Then add the wine, bring it all to a boil, reduce the heat to a slow simmer, and cook covered, adding more broth as necessary to keep it from drying out for about an hour.

5. When it is done cooking, dust with a grinding of pepper and serve.
