Slow-Cooker Beef Ragout
Monday, November 05, 2018
Crocktober may be over, but I intend on slow cooking all winter long.
When the weather is colder and the nights are shorter I always crave Spaghetti
Bolognese. I could have it every single night of the week. I often find myself
standing at the stove lifting the lid and staring at it, inhaling the aromas of
weeknight comforts (and to also make sure it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the
pots). The latter part makes it hard for me to do anything else when I’m making
this kind of sauce. It’s really easy for it to burn and that’s just the worst!
Getting to experiment with the new Crock-pot Lift and Serve slow-cooker
couldn’t have come at a better time for us! I wanted ragout, but I also wanted
to run errands, make deadlines and let’s face it, sit on the couch without
having to check bottoms of pots! Crock-pot has been my saviour in getting
back into the swing of life after my honeymoon extravaganza and dealing with
the transition back into cold weather. I’ve been able to make healthy,
delicious meals and Crock-pot gives me the freedom to what I need to do in and
out of the house whilst dinner finishes itself, without compromising the deliciousness
of dinner at all.
The Lift and Serve is EXTRA handy because it has a hinged lid, which
means you can literally take the bowl of ragout out of the appliance, bring it
straight to the table and spoon it right on to your bowl of pasta of choice (or
whatever ragout vehicle you choose)! #chefsofconvenience #crocktober #ad
Slow-Cooker Beef Ragout
Serves 5 hungry people
YOU WILL NEED:
2 CLOVES GARLIC, CHOPPED
2 ONIONS, FINELY CHOPPED
4 LARGE CARROTS, PEELED AND CHOPPED
1 STICK CELERY, FINELY CHOPPED
4 BAY LEAVES
1/4 TSP CHILLI FLAKES
4 LARGE TOMATOES, CHOPPED
2LB MINCED BEEF (OR MINCED MEAT OF YOUR CHOICE)
50ML RED WINE
3 TBSP WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE
1/2 TSP GREEN TOBASCO (OPTIONAL)
1 BEEF OR VEG STOCK CUBE (OR 1 TBSP STOCK POWDER)
2 TBSP BROWN SUGAR
3 TBSP TOMATO PASTE
2 400G CANS PLUM OR CHOPPED TOMATOES
OLIVE OIL
SALT AND PEPPER
BASIL FOR GARNISH
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pan. Sauté the garlic, onions,
carrots and celery in pan until the onions have softened and browned slightly.
Remove from pan and add to the slow-cooker. Add another table spoon of olive
oil and add the meat on high heat until it has browned and some of it has a
nice golden crust on it. It’s not necessary to have all of it like that. Break
the meat apart into small pieces with a wooden spoon.
Add the meat to the slow-cooker with the sautéed vegetables.
Scrape all of the bits from the bottom of the pan into the slow-cooker. Add the
remaining ingredients into the slow-cooker and season with salt and pepper. Set to low heat and cook for 6-7 hours. When it's ready, taste for seasoning and add another pinch of salt, pepper or chilli flakes to taste and sprinkle with fresh basil to serve.
Enjoy!!
Mm, this looks so delicious! :) I will give it a try for sure soon. I need to put my slow cooker to better use!

ReplyDeleteTo keep things moderate beginning with a fundamental cut of hamburger that is effectively achievable at the supermarket. Brisket is tasty when dried as jerky anyway it is normally bundled and sold entire (too huge) and with an enormous fat top connected. You won't have any desire to pay for fat you will later dispose of.
