Procedure
Preheat oven to 350°F. Dust the beef in flour, shaking to remove any excess. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook the beef for 2 to 3 minutes each side or until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Reduce heat to low, add the remaining oil, onion and garlic and cook until softened. Increase heat. Add the wine and cook for 3 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Add the stock, water, tomatoes, bay leaves, tomato paste and sugar and stir to combine.
Return the beef to the pan, cover with the lid, transfer to the oven and roast for 2½ hours. Remove beef from the pan and shred the meat using 2 forks. Return meat to the sauce and mix to combine. Set aside.
Cook the pasta in a large sauce pan of salted boiling water for 10 to 12minutes or until al dente. Drain, return to the pan with the beef sauce, salt, pepper and toss to combine. Top with basil and sprinkle with parmesan to serve.
