Milk is an important source of nutrients that you and your family shouldn’t miss out on. If someone in your family has lactose intolerance and the rest of the family still want to enjoy the taste of real milk, try Lactofree - the UK’s first virtually lactose-free dairy drink.

Bung it in foil, marinade it and stick it on the bbq?

By orangina on Thu 08-May-08 13:43:02

make and freeze

Can I just point out that if you make anything other than a casserole type dish with it, it will be yuck, the reason it is casserole beef is because it has fiberous sinew that needs to be broken down by long slow cooking. So it will be too tough for a dish like a stir-fry or fajitas that take quick cooking.

Carmenere that's what I was worried about. Bugger might have to go for the make and freeze option which means cooking 2 meals today <sigh>

Peppered beef & rice.

Cook as if planning on casseroling.

Drain. Lightly fry some onions & mushrooms. Add beef, tomato puree, garlic and lots (and I mean lots) of freshly ground pepper. Add back just enough of the cooking stock to make a sauce.

Serve with boiled rice and side salad.

The 2nd part takes no time at all by the way, just bung everything in the pan whilst you cook the rice.

MAke and freeze-it will be pissing down next week no doubt and you will need a beef casserole.....
