Ingredients:
500g good quality stewing beef - shin is great, skirt works well
250g chanteney carrots
1 large onion
seven or eight shallots
1tsp tomato puree
1 vegetable stock-pot (I used Knorr)
1 beef stock cube (I used Oxo)
Worcester sauce
Hendersons relish
Salt & pepper
1.5dsp cornflour
Method:
Season the beef well with salt and pepper
Add a little oil and toss to coat evenly
In a multi-cooker or pan over high heat, brown the beef, 4-5mins
Add tomato puree and stir through, cook 2mins
Add several good glugs of Worcester sauce & Henderson's
Stir, and allow to continue cooking until glazed, about 2mins
Halve, peel and chop the onion into rough half-moons
Add to the pan and stir, cook 2mins
Peel the shallots (I top and tail them, see video)
Add to the pan, along with the carrots, and stir
Cook 1min
Add vegetable stock cube and hot water until the meat and veg is just covered.
Switch to slow-cooker, and cook on high for six hours.
Once done, ladle out most of the gravy into a pan.
Bring to a gentle boil.
Make a cornflour slurry with a little water, and gradually add to the gravy, stirring all the time and allowing to thicken.
You want the consistency to be slightly too thick - so that when recombined with the remaining stew it will be the right consistency.
Once thickened to your liking, gently recombine the gravy with the stew.
Season to taste, and adjust as desired.
Serve hot, with potatoes of your choice and some iron-rich greens!
