Classic Slow Cooked Beef Casserole

Here's my no frills, classic beef casserole, which will hit the spot any night of the week!

It's even better the next day.

This is so sentimental as my mum would make a version of this.

Ingredients:

1.8kg beef casserole/chuck steak

Olive oil 

1 onion

2 carrots

3 stalks celery

3 cloves Garlic, crushed 

2 x 400g can Crushed Tomatoes 

2L Beef Stock

1/2 cup Red Wine

Salt and Pepper 

Method:

Cut beef into large cubes. 

Heat cast iron pot on stove, add olive oil and brown beef in batches. Put aside. 

Add more oil into pot and add chopped onion, celery and carrots. Stir and cook for 4-5 mins. 

Add beef and any juices back into pot. Along with cans of tomatoes, stock and salt and pepper. 

Stir well. 

Pop lid on and place in preheated 140°c oven for 4-5 hours. 

Meat should be falling apart. 

Serve with mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes.
