Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • large pot or skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1.75 kg beef chuck cut into 4cm cubes
  • 1.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1.5 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoon oil
  • 20 g butter unsalted
  • 1 large onion halved then sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 7 tablespoon flour plain / all purpose
  • 4 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 litre beef stock reduced salt
  • 1.5 cups sour cream full fat best

Garlic Butter Mushrooms

  • 3 tablespoon butter unsalted
  • 700 g mushrooms sliced into 0.5cm thick slices
  • 3 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon pepper

Serving

  • Pasta, wide egg noodles, or mashed potato
  • Chives for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Pat beef dry then sprinkle with all the salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy based pot or skillet over high heat. Add beef in a single layer and brown aggressively all over for about 4 minutes. Remove and repeat with rest of beef, adding more oil as needed.
  • Let the pot cool down a bit then return to stove. Melt half the butter, then cook garlic and onion for 3 minutes until softened.
  • Sprinkle the flour across the surface, then stir. Add the mustard and stir until it looks gluey.
  • While stirring, pour in about half the beef stock then mix so the flour mixture dissolves into the liquid. Add remaining stock, stir well, scraping the bottom of the pot, and bring to simmer.
  • Transfer all liquid into slow cooker. Add beef, then slow cook 8 hours on LOW or 5 hours on HIGH.
  • Melt half the butter in a large skillet over high heat and add half the mushrooms. Cook until almost golden. Add half the garlic, salt and pepper, cook until golden. Remove and repeat with remaining butter, mushrooms and garlic.
  • Mix sour cream with 1.5 cups of liquid from slow cooker, then gently stir into stew. Stir in mushrooms. Serve over noodles, pasta or mashed potato, sprinkled with chives.

Notes

Mixing sour cream with sauce from stew prior to adding ensures you don’t end up with sour cream specks in the sauce.
