Stew:
Flour the meat (just put a handful of flour in a bag with the beef chunks and toss to roughly coat)
Put all stew ingredients in
Give it a stir to combine everything
Dumplings:
Rub butter and flour to breadcrumb consistency.
Mix in cheese and or herbs (I used oregano)
Pour a little milk at a time mixing until it comes together
Wet hands and roll into balls (even sized, about walnut sized works well)
Pop in onto of the stew (to one side if also putting veg in)
Cook for 8 hours on low (but longer would be fine)
Steamed veg:
cut up some carrots and broccoli (or whatever!) and put in an oven bag
1.5 hours before you want to eat it put the oven bag of veg in on top of the stew next to the dumplings
Enjoy
