Ingredients

Servings
  • 800 g beef around 2 cm - 1" cubes, diced
  • 5 prigs thyme or ½ tablespoon dried thyme, fresh
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
  • 10 button onion or small shallots
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 red bell peppers approx 150 grams, sweet
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon red pepper paste
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour plain white flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 ½ cups beef stock or chicken stock
  • 1 large carrot approx 150 grams, diced
  • 1 large potato diced
  • 150 g garden pea

Instructions

  1. Place a Dutch oven or a heavy-based pan on medium-low heat and add the meat along with the thyme.
  2. Gently cook the meat until it releases its water and then evaporates again, for about 30 to 35 minutes. 
  3. Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
  4. Add olive oil (if necessary) and sauté the onions with garlic for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add the peppers and sauté for another minute. Stir in the tomato paste along with the pepper paste, flour, salt, and pepper. Give them a quick stir. 
  6. Pour the stock and deglaze the bottom of the pan to release the tasty bits stuck to the bottom of the pan.
  7. Add the carrots and then the potatoes, and give them a good stir.
  8. Bring the Dutch oven to a boil and place it in preheated oven with the lid off. 
  9. Cook the dish for an hour and then add the peas to the pan.  
  10. Let it cook without covering the lid for another 15 to 20 minutes, or until the meat is tender and the stock has thickened.

Notes

  • You can cook this dish on the stovetop if you prefer. If cooking on a stovetop, give the dish a stir every 10 to 15 minutes to avoid it sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • I recommend a well-marbled cut such as chuck or brisket as lean meat is not suitable for slow cooking.
  • The coking timing would be different depending on the cut and size of the meat.
  • The leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days if refrigerated or for up to three months if frozen.
  • You can make this dish a couple of days ahead and reheat it gently when needed. It tastes even better a day after or two!
