500g Lean Diced Casserole Steak - What to Cook?

[Theonlyoneiknow]

So, have started emptying the freezer and have pulled this our for tomorrow night for an adult meal.

Any suggestions? I don't normally cook beef (no idea why as love it). Have got a slow cooker that I could use.

Thanks in advance for any.tips!

Some sort of curry, depending on what you have in your spice rack

This is delicious. I've made it more than once. I don't put the star anise in as I find it overpowers it a bit. I've only cooked it in the oven but I should imagine it will cook well in a slow cooker.

I would do a slow cooked beef, red wine, bacon and mushroom stew. This:

Recipe: Beef Bourgignon
Category: Beef

Servings: 4

Ingredients:
3 rashers of bacon
diced stewing beef (400g)
a small handful of flour
a glug of olive oil
1 onion
2 carrots
3 cloves of garlic, peeled
1 tbsp tomato purée
a handful of baby button mushrooms
12 pearly onions
a few sprigs of fresh thyme
bay leaves
half a bottle of red wine (375)
beef stock cube, crumbled
new potatoes (400g)

Directions:
set the slow cooker to high.
finely chop the bacon and toss the beef in the flour.
peel and dice the onion and carrots, then grate the peeled garlic.
tip the bacon, floured beef, onion, carrot, garlic and tomato purée into the slow cooker along with the mushrooms, peeled pearl onions and herbs.
pour in the wine and stir in the crumbled stock cube then cook for 6 hours.
preheat the oven to 200°C.
halve the potatoes and toss in oil, salt and pepper before placing on a roasting tray with a bit of extra thyme.
roast the potatoes in the oven for about 30 minutes.
serve the beef with the roasted potatoes and a garnish of fresh thyme.

Today I've used my slow cooker to make a beef stew, beef cubes, a knorr stock pot, knorr herb pot, cup of water, tin of chopped tomatoes and a bag of miniature new potatoes, I've just taken the jus out to make a thicker gravy with butter and flour and stirred it back in to serve with mash. My son has declared a 9.3/10.
