What could I cook with left over beef?

[missfatty]

Have lots of left over beef from yesterday any ideas on what I can do with it?

Stovies!

Mince it and make cottage pie

Cut into chunks and do a chunky chilli con carne

I was just looking for inspiration on the BBC good food website. I'm going to have beef salad with chips. They have lots of ideas of different types of salads

Slice into portions, place in gravy and freeze, sliced beef, salad and jacket potato or chips, beef and dripping sandwiches, cottage pie,

Chop it into strips and have fajitas. That's what I'd do, anyway!

I've made this and it's lovely.

It's now my "go to" recipe for leftover beef (apart from in the winter when I use it to make Cottage pie).

Other option is actually to make beef spread for sandwiches. I know it sounds odd and reminiscent of 1970's food, but made yourself it's lovely - it ends up like a very rich beef pate recipe that's lovely in summer with some crusty bread.

You can follow this recipe but given your beef is already cooked you can half the cooking time.

Seraphina I might do that tomorrow

Slice thinly and either beef and broccoli or Chinese stir fry.

Jamie Oliver’s Beef Rendang - from save with Jamie, delicious

Sometimes I cut into strips ,and add to stir fry veggies with some sauce .Other times just do a mini roast ,with new/mashed potatoes /some different veg and a few yorkshires.Always good ,cold in sandwiches /with pickles /chutney etc .Ooh feeling quite hungry now!

OH wants a curry but didn't know if I would taste weird or not. Will give it ah

Ago!

I'm planning to make individual beef and onion pies with my left over beef. Really looking forward to them :)

Definitely curry! Jamie does a leftover curry recipe

@weebarra Can you tell me your stovies recipe please?

Sweet and sour beef. It's a dead easy recipe to make from scratch. Ketchup, brown sugar and malt vinegar. Add peppers and pineapple chunks and meat. Add rice and it's a really big hit in my house!! www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/3227674/easy-sweet-and-sour-sauce

I second stovies, especially if you have leftover gravy and roasties to go in it. Yum!

Bore I know I'm not who you asked but, hope this helps.

I don't use a recipe for Stovies - just learned from my DM but I've done a quick google and this is the one I found that seems to match the method I was taught the best.

Same really with Yorkshire puddings - I can't give anyone a recipe. I just "know" how to make them and when the batter is "right".

Drives my friends mad who ask why my Yorkshire's are so big and fluffy. I can give them general "tips" (like the fat you use, how hot it needs to be, oven temperature and don't open the door) but can't really explain how I do it! I think it's all in the consistency of the batter and obviously different flour/egg/milk combinations are never exact so you just have to "feel" when it's right.

Apologies for the Yorkshire pudding diversion

Thanks DeRigueurMortis That looks delicious!

I've never encountered stovies and googling produced a plethora of recipes but all using mince or corned beef.

I know what you mean about when something "feels right" - that's my style of cooking too

Beef Udon soup

Bore I think it's a cooking "tribe"

Curry would be fine.
