leftover beef ???

Yes slowly cooking it in a stew or curry will def make it more tender. The longer and slower (ie lower temperature) the cooking time is the softer it will become

If you have one, a slow cooker is your best bet

Thanks - you guys are just the best!

It's going in the slow cooker tomorrow with some stock and veg.

So pleased i am not going to just throw it away.

I'd slice it thinly and put in a casserole dish with gravy and cook slowly , comes out delish

Have it cold with pickles
Slice it reheat it and serve it as a mini roast with fried potatoes and veg of your choice.
Mince it add onion and put in a pie
Mince it, and use it for a cottage pie
Put it in sandwiches
Slice it and freeze it for a day when you need a cheap meal

Hope this gives you a couple of ideas.

I like to slice it thinly and put it in gravy, you can also freeze it like that for another day when its reheated its delicious... its lovely with mash and vegs..

any leftover gravy?

our family favourite is hash - chop 2 onions, a load of carrots and potatoes and chop the meat into bitesize pieces.

Put in pan with leftover gravy and some stock - and cook gently. Mine is already in the slow cooker today..but you can cook it on the hob - my mum cooked it in the oven in a casserole - leaving it open towards the end produced a sort of skin that we used to fight over!

I'm making pasties from the Economy Gastronomy book with mine

You'll get more ideas in the existing thread; I'll merge this later.
