Made this the other night and it was delicious thank you!
I did just use diced beef instead and threw in a few extra veggies as I love vegetables but it was still amazing.
Can the beef cheeks be cooked whole, or must they be cut into pieces. thanks.
Sure, I would do either 🙂
I cut my cheeks in half. The dish was amazing!
Absolutely delicious!
Had 2 beef cheeks so halved the recipe.. A nice rich gravy and plenty of it. Very tasty. Would be tasty with other cuts of meat also.
I made this today using “casserole beef” from Woolworths. Apart from that, I followed the recipe. Served it with creamy mashed potato and a French stick. It was ansolutely delicious!! Loved, loved loved it, as did my hubby and dinner guests. Will be a firm favourite. Thank you ??
what is beef cheeks?
Exactly what they sound like Linda 🙂 They’ll be labelled as such by your butcher, very popular cut of beef in the last couple years 🙂
