Beef, veg and wine casserole.
I bought some lovely beef from my local(ish) farm shop. Tossed it in seasoned flour and browned it, added some smoked bacon lardons, potato, leek, celery, onions, chili, garlic, carrot and a tin of tomatoes. I added some wine (a mix of leftover red and white) and some stock. It smells yummy. Some of it will be for tonight with dumplings, the rest will be frozen for another day (or 2).Aim: To clear debt in 2 years then start saving!Debt at start (31/10/08): £21818.30 :eek:Payments to date: £353.08 :jDebt left to pay: £21465.22/£21818.30 :rolleyes:0 -

Transfer it to a saucepan and thicken with cornflour to make a sauce, spoon off the fat that settles on top so you literally have just the sauce like gravy YUM :TMarried mum to 4, new addition expected 02/07/140 -

Bit confused by people saying they are cooking meat without water, or just a little bit. I'm sure my slow cooker instructions says it needs to be half full to be safe. I keep ending up with too much liquid in my stews etc. as have a huge slow cooker. It never goes to waste as I tend to try and use it for stock but even knowing if I dont have to add extra liquid just to be one the safe side would be good!0
