- 2x brown onions sliced
- 1tsp butter
- 2x tsp garlic
- 1x Rosemary sprig or 1tsp of dried
- 2x thyme sprig or 2tsp of dried
- 2x bay leaves
- 2tbs of soy sauce
- 2tbs Worcestershire sauce
- 1tbs tomato paste (optional)
- 1/2 cup of red wine (I use pinot)
- (if you like a stronger red wine taste you could use a full cup and less stock)
- 2x cups of beef stock (salt reduced is best )
- *Your favourite gravy powder see recipe instructions *
Brown beef in a fry pan (optional)
Add all ingredients into the slow cooker
and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for around 4 hours.
Make sure the beef is tender if your happy with it thicken the sauce with your favourite gravy powder.
I use two teaspoons mixed into 2 tablespoons of warm water and repeat about 3-4 times until I'm happy with the consistency and taste.
Season with salt and pepper and remove herbs before serving with creamy mash potato
