This is a classic dish, beef stewed with wine and herbs served with mashed potato and a vegetable, in this case, kohlrabi. Kohlrabi is unusual in American kitchens, but is similar to turnip. The cut of beef chosen for this dish, shoulder tip, has a thick broad layer of fat which serves to baste the meat and keep it moist. The fat is cut away after cooking.
