Having just purchased a slow cooker I wanted a recipe to give warmth and flavour to cold winter nights. This can be cooked in a slow clooker (7 to 8 hours on slow) or in an oven.

Any root vegetables can be used in this recipe and altered according to taste

Method

Season the flour with Steenbergs Organic Perfect Salt. Roll the beef in the seasoned flour
Fry the beef in hot oil until browned in a casserole dish. When brown, transfer to the slow cooker or a plate
Brown the onions in the oil and then return meat to casserole dish.
Add the chopped vegetables, the garlic and the sabzi ghormeh
Add the vegetable stock and bring to the boil
Place in a low oven for about an hour until its cooked
Serve with crunchy jacket potatoes or on creamy mash

If you are cooking this in a slow cooker brown the meat and onions. Transfer to slow cooker, add rest of ingredients and off you go! I cooked this for 7 hours on 'slow' setting - delicious!
