Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Pre-fry the meat with seasonings: Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, rosemary, and thyme and cook until the onion is soft, about 2 minutes. Season the beef with salt, pepper, and flour. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the beef to the pot. Cook until the meat is browned and golden around the edges, about 5 minutes.
  2. Simmer the meat in wine and broth: Add the Marsala wine. Using a wooden spoon, gently scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the pumpkin and sun-dried tomatoes and stir. Add enough beef broth to cover the meat and butternut squash. Bring the pan to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low and simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper again to taste. Sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve with crusty bread and drizzle with the resulting meat sauce.
