Slow Cooked Beef Stew
I love to come home to the smell of home-cooked food but as I'm the only one that cooks in our house, this is a rarity. That's why I love my slow cooker and this hearty winter dish is a favorite for all the family. Thick gravy and tender slow-cooked beef ideally served with mashed potatoes, cabbage, and some nice crusty bread to mop up. Great to prepare all the vegetables the night before especially if slow cooking.

Cook's Notes:
This recipe should have enough salt from the ingredients listed. However, if you prefer, you may add more towards the end of cooking to add more flavor. Also, you can use a mixture of herbs such as bouquet garni, but thyme and parsley bring out the best flavor in my opinion.
Taste the stew throughout cooking to see if it has enough herbs, pepper, and stock cubes. If too thick, add more water.
