Good Food Slow Cooker Beef Stew

Good Food Slow Cooker Beef Stew

14 Jan 2025


20 MINS


4 HOURS ON HIGH, 8 HOURS ON LOW


4

INGREDIENTS
1 onion, chopped
2 celery sticks, finely chopped
2 tbsp rapeseed oil
3 carrots, halved and cut into chunks
2 bay leaves
½ pack thyme
2 tbsp tomato purée
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 beef stock cubes or stock pots
900g beef 
2 tsp cornflour 
½ small bunch parsley, chopped
Buttery mash, to serve 

METHOD

STEP 1 > Fry the onion and celery in 1 tbsp oil over a low heat until they start to soften – about 5 mins. Add the carrots, bay and thyme, fry for 2 mins, stir in the purée and Worcestershire sauce, add 600ml boiling water, stir and tip everything into a slow cooker.

 

STEP 2 > Crumble over the stock cubes or add the stock pots and stir, then season with pepper (don’t add salt as the stock may be salty).
 

STEP 3 > Clean out the frying pan and fry the beef in the remaining oil in batches until it is well browned, then tip each batch into the slow cooker. Cook on low for 8-10 hrs, or on high for 4 hrs.

 

STEP 4 > If you want to thicken the gravy, mix the cornflour with a splash of cold water to make a paste, then stir in 2 tbsp of the liquid from the slow cooker. Tip back into the slow cooker, stir and cook for a further 30 mins on high. 

 

STEP 5 > Stir in the parsley and season again to taste. 

 

STEP 6 > Serve with mash, if you like. Leave to cool before freezing.

TIP

Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika for a hint of heat.
