Preheat over to 350 F. Heat oil in heavy 4- to 5-quart Dutch oven over
medium high heat. Toss beef with flour in large bowl. Add beef to pan in

batch. Transfer browned beef to bowl. Add onions to pan and cook until
light brown, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, garlic,
herbs and cumin to pan. Stir in wine and bring to a boil. Cover and bake
