Winter is here, the dogs won't get out of bed, its dark early and our afternoon walk is brisk because of the cold and the failing light. The beef strips I had thawing on the sink, stayed frozen solid for hours.
I was left scrambling to make a quick dinner, with frozen meat, a jiffy blast in the nucolator while I roughly chopped onions and mushrooms and a delicious warming meal for at least six frozen starving adults was only 30 minutes away. I kid you not. Slash into those veges, dust your meat in seasoned flour, brown it for five or so minutes in oil and butter with a handful of smoky bacon, veges in, bathed in beef stock, lid on 10 minutes on the quick cook function in the Tefal cook4me and its done. Loosen and cream up the already stunningly tasty sauce with as much sour cream or natural yoghurt as you like and you're good to go. Gives you enough time to whack together some rustic garlic bread with my fresh home grown herbs (including the trip to the herb garden) and crust that bread up in the Tefal Actifry for 4 minutes and you are eating a fabulicious winter warmer inside half an hour. Bottle of spicy red Cab Sav and you won't need the heater on anymore.
My favourite part of winter is the wholesome, healthy stews and casseroles. Old fashioned favourites and of course some new trendy jobbies to keep the menu fresh and alive.
This recipe is so worth the tiny amount of effort it takes to make and it makes an unbelievably large amount of food, which makes it a very economical family feed. Left overs can stuff a spud or a crepe or top a toast for breakie with an egg. It is winter after all. Fill a pie or jaffle or sandwich maker snack, the possibilities really are endless.
Forget that slow cooker, I have, mine dropped dead and I haven't missed it or replaced it. No running the power hungry oven for hours to tenderise meat. This cooks so quick you'd better get the kids to set the table, you won't have time for that job.
