Slowcookerhoisinbeefstew Recipes

Steps:

• Toss the beef with the paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Coat in flour and shake off any excess. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook undisturbed until it begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, turning the beef as needed, until mostly browned, about 3 minutes more. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the beef to the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker; add the potatoes, mushrooms, carrots and onions and stir to combine.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the tomato paste and stir until the oil begins to turn brick-red, about 1 minute. Add the flour and wine and whisk until thick (it's OK if there are some lumps). Add the beef broth, thyme, caraway if using, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and bring to a simmer, whisking; continue simmering and whisking until the gravy is smooth and thick, about 4 minutes.
• Pour the gravy into the slow cooker, cover and cook on low for 8 hours. The meat and vegetables should be tender.
• Season with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley. Serve the stew in bowls with dollops of sour cream and a sprinkle of paprika.

Steps:

• Place meat in slow cooker. In a small bowl mix together the flour, salt, and pepper; pour over meat, and stir to coat meat with flour mixture. Stir in the garlic, bay leaf, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, onion, beef broth, potatoes, carrots, and celery.
• Cover, and cook on Low setting for 10 to 12 hours, or on High setting for 4 to 6 hours.

Steps:

• Whisk flour, garlic salt, and black pepper together in a small bowl; pour into a large resealable plastic bag. Place stew beef in bag, seal the bag, and shake to coat beef to coat completely.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; saute coated beef in hot oil until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Stir onion into beef; saute until onion is softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour beef and onions into a slow cooker.
• Stir beef broth, red wine, and Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl. Pour broth mixture into the same skillet and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Transfer broth mixture to the slow cooker.
• Mix potatoes, carrots, celery, garlic, bay leaves, beef stew seasoning mix, and paprika into beef mixture.
• Cook on High for 1 hour. Reduce heat to Low and cook until meat is tender, 6 to 7 hours.

Steps:

• Mix first 4 ingredients in slow cooker sprayed with cooking spray until blended. Add all remaining ingredients except flour and water; stir gently to evenly coat meat and vegetables with broth mixture. Cover with lid. Cook on LOW 8 to 9 hours (or on HIGH 4 to 5 hours).
• Use slotted spoon to transfer meat and vegetables to serving bowl; cover to keep warm.
• Mix flour and water until blended; whisk into liquid in slow cooker. Cook, covered, on HIGH 15 min. or until sauce is slightly thickened; spoon over meat and vegetables.

Steps:

• Dry beef with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 T oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking.
• Add half of beef and brown on all sides, about 8 minutes.
• Transfer to slow cooker inset and repeat with remaining beef (you shouldn't need more oil).
• Add 1 T oil, onions and 1/4 t salt to empty skillet and cook until golden brown, about 6 minutes.
• Add tomato paste and cook, stirring well, for 2 minutes.
• Add broth and soy sauce, bring to a simmer and transfer to slow-cooker inset.
• Toss carrots, parsnips, potatoes, 1/2 t thyme, and remaining 1 T oil in bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Wrap vegetables in foil packet that will fit in slow cooker.
• Note: To make the pack, place the vegetables on one side of a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
• Fold the foil over, shaping it into a packet that will fit into your slow cooker, then crimp to seal the edges.
• Stir bay leaves and tapioca into slow-cooker insert; set vegetable packet on top of beef.
• Set slow cooker to high, cover, and cook for 6-7 hours (or cook on low for 10 hours-11 hours).
• Transfer vegetable packet to plate.
• Carefully open packet (watch for steam) and stir vegetables and juices into stew.
• Add remaining 1 t thyme and peas and let stand until heated through.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Steps:

• 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. 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).
• 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.
• 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. Stir in the parsley and season again to taste. Serve with mash, if you like. Leave to cool before freezing.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the flour, 1 tablespoon of salt, and the pepper. Rub the flour mixture on the beef, making sure it is covered entirely.
• Heat oil in large skillet. Sear the meat on all sides until golden brown.
• Transfer meat to a slow cooker. Add the onion, celery, carrot, garlic, tomatoes, wine, bay leaf, and remaining ½ tablespoon salt. Cook on low for 8 hours.
• Remove and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the parsley and sage. Serve the stew with your favorite side dish and sprinkle more parsley on top.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• The night before, whisk together the broth, hoisin, hot sauce, garlic and ginger.
• Add the beef, onions, carrots and celery. Toss to coat well.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• In the morning, transfer meat mixture into the slow cooker.
• Cover and cook on a low setting 6-8 hours (or on high setting 3 hours).

Steps:

• To marinate the beef, place the cubes in a large glass or stainless-steel bowl. Add the wine, carrot, celery and onion. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Line both a baking sheet and a large plate with paper towels. With a slotted spoon, remove the beef from the marinade and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Pat the meat dry with paper towels. Strain the marinade, reserving separately both the vegetables and the liquid.
• To cook the beef, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook until the fat is rendered and the bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to the prepared plate to drain. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat from the skillet. Decrease the heat to medium, add 2 tablespoons of the canola oil and heat until shimmering.
• Season the beef with salt and pepper. Add the beef to the skillet in two or three batches (don't crowd the pan) and sear until it is nicely browned on all sides, about 5 minutes; transfer to the prepared baking sheet when done. Set aside.
• Add the reserved vegetables from the beef marinade to the skillet and cook until they start to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and toss again to lightly coat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the flour turns brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Transfer the vegetables and beef to the insert of a slow cooker. Add the reserved marinade liquid and enough stock to barely cover the meat. Add the bouquet garni, tomato paste and garlic and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high heat for 3 to 4 hours or low for 6 to 8 hours. (Alternatively, you can cook the stew without a slow cooker: Instead of cooking the bacon and beef in a skillet, simply start in a large Dutch oven and do not transfer the vegetables and beef. Cover the Dutch oven and place in an oven preheated to 350 degrees F until the meat is tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.)
• Remove and discard the bouquet garni. Add the mushrooms and continue to cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in the reserved bacon. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve piping hot with noodles, potatoes or rice. Or, better yet, cool, refrigerate and reheat to serve the next day.
