Bind the chuck roll with kitchen twine and season with salt and pepper.
Sear the meat on all sides in an iron cast pot in hot grape seed oil then remove the beef from the pot.
Sweat the mirepoix for 5 minutes, deglaze with the white wine, add the tomato concasse, garlic, bouquet garni, quartered orange and water.
Heat up the oven to 110°C.
Place the chuck roll back into the pot with the other ingredients, place the lid on and cook in the oven for 3 hours to 3 ½ hours .
When everything is cooked and cooled, wrap the chuck roll in cling film and refrigerate.
Pass the sauce through a sieve and bring back to the heat to reduce until it thickens.

Slice the eggplants to 3-4 mm thick and sprinkle with salt, keep aside for 15 minutes to release the water.

Arrange alternatively the eggplant and tomato concasse on a baking tray, grate some parmesan on top and place under the grill until hot and crispy.
Cut steaks from the cooked beef chuck roll and pan fry them with butter and garlic until crispy brown.
Pour the sauce in the pan with the steaks and baste the meat constantly.
