Beef Redux

So, what did I do with the rest of that beef?

Given that it was a bit rare I didn't want to leave it to slice cold onto sandwiches etc as originally planned. So, it as actually a simple casserole affair the next day.

One large saucepan. Potatoes, carrots, onions, sprouts, peas (i.e. the veg I happened to have left over) and the rest of the beef cut up into small pieces. Stock cube, water, seasoning and bring to the boil. Left it boiling for a good 10 minutes and then reduced the heat so it was simmering.

An hour and a half later it was given a good stir to break up the potatoes a bit and thicken it up. Just make sure to keep an eye on it while it simmers as you don't want it going dry and burning.

Exciting and innovative cooking - No. Simple, tasty and comforting - Yes.
