With all the rainy weather we have been having, it's been perfect for slow cooking!
Below are two recipes from Pinterest that I've tried recently.

{Slow Cook Beef Goulash}
Adapted from Adora's Box's Beef Goulash
- 500g braising steak, cut into cubes
- 500g of Veggies - Capsicum, Zucchini and Carrot
- flour seasoned with salt and pepper for dredging
- 4 tbsps. olive oil
- 3 cloves of garlic, crushed
- 2 medium onions, sliced
- 1 tbsp. paprika
- 2 tbsps. tomato paste
- 2 c. beef stock
- 1 tsp of dry thyme
- 1/4 c. sour cream
Slice the beef into approximately 2"x1"x1/4 thick slices and dust lightly with the seasoned flour. Shake off the excess. Brown, a few at a time, in a mixture of the olive oil. Set aside. In the same pan, saute the garlic for 1 minute, then add the onions and cook until soft. Add the paprika and the tomato paste. Blend well. Set aside. Cook the Veggies in the same pan until slightly brown. Transfer to an oven proof casserole then add the beef, onion mix, the 2 c. of boiling stock and the thyme. Stir gently then cook in the oven for 1 hour and fifteen minutes or until the beef is tender. When done, stir in the Sour cream. Serve with boiled potatoes or rice.
