Ingredients
  

  • 1 kg Diced Beef Chuck
  • 4 Medium Carrots
  • 3 cups Beef Stock
  • 200 ml Red Wine
  • 5 tbsp Plain Flour
  • 2 Red Onions
  • 4 Garlic Cloves
  • 10 Peppercorns
  • Fresh Thyme
  • 3 Bay Leaves
  • 400 g Baby Potatoes
  • 200 g A Mix of Wild Mushrooms

Instructions
 

  • Set up your slow cooker and heat up on low setting.
  • Dry your beef chunks lightly pressing on with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. Heat up 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large frying pan and brown the beef on each side. You might want to do it in batches to make sure it's cooking evenly. Place in a slow cooker.
  • Add a bit more oil to the same pan and add diced onion and cook for 6-7 min until golden brown stirring regularly. Then add crushed garlic cloves and let cook for 1 more minute. Stir in the flour and mix well making sure everything is evenly coated. Transfer to the slow cooker. Add wine, stock, carrots cut into thick chunks, mushrooms, and baby potatoes. Season with few sprigs of thyme, bay leaves, peppercorns, and stir together.
  • Leave to cook for 5 to 6 hours or until the beef is tender. Give it a try and season with salt and pepper to taste if needed. Enjoy with fresh baguette.
