In a large pot over medium-high heat, brown the meat in batches, season with salt and pepper and set aside on a plate.
In the same pot, brown the garlic, shallots and leek. Deglaze with the wine and let reduce by half. Add the broth, bay leaf and meat. Bring to a boil. Add the vegetables and let simmer covered over medium-low heat for 1 hour.
In a small bowl, dissolve the tapioca in the cream. Add the cream mixture to the pot and cook over medium-low heat uncovered for 25 minutes or until the meat and vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
Adjust the seasoning if necessary, serve and enjoy!
