Preparation:
Season the beef with salt and pepper and brown on all sides in lard.
Remove the beef and add the chopped onion and carrot to the fat. Cook
until the onion is soft and golden. Put the vegetables into the
crockpot and put the beef on top. Bring the stock with the bay leaf to
the boil and pour over the meat. Cover and cook on HIGH 30 mins., then
on LOW 8-9 hrs. If liked a little flour may be mixed with cold water
and stirred into the crockpot an hour before serving to make a thick
gravy. |
