Slow Cooker Beef Stew
Perfect for winter days, when you just want pure comfort in front of the television, feet up, best after a long day at work when you need indulgence and warmth.
Ingredients:
500g lean stewing beef diced
1 onion diced finely
2 potatoes peeled and chopped into fairly small pieces
2 carrots chopped
4 maggi beef stock cubes ( if not using maggi use one beef oxo cube and one stock melt) to make 600ml stock
1 small tin of baked beans
1 tin of vegetable soup ( if you do not have heinz vegetable soup use an instant packet of soup such as asparagus or cauliflower)
Sprinkling of worcestershire sauce
2 dessertspoons of plain flour
Method:
1. Combine everything into the slow cooker, except for the plain flour. Ensure you mix well to combine everything together. The worcestershire sauce will give the stew a nice brown colour.
2. Place the slow cooker on high for 4-5 hours or until all the vegetables are cooked and the meat is tender. Alternatively if you have more time cook on low all day for about 6-8 hours.
3. Once you are nearly ready to serve sprinkle flour over the stew and mix well quickly to thicken the stew. Alternatively cornflour could also be used if you don't have any flour.
4. Serve immediately in large bowls. Serves about 5 people depending on how hungry you are. Goes well with some thick slices of french bread with lashings of butter. Enjoy!
