Instructions

Season the beef cubes with a few turns of the salt and pepper mill.
Heat the oil in a skillet and brown the beef, in batches until nicely coloured. Set aside.
Add all the vegetables in your slow cooker and then mix in the crushed beef cubes, garlic granules, salt, pepper, mustard, tomato purée and sugar. Add the xanthan gum or cornflour slurry.
Add the browned beef, bay leaves, Worcestershire sauce and ale. Stir to combine, cover and cook 8 hours on LOW or 5-6 hours on HIGH setting.
Discard the bay leaves. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Serve over mashed potatoes or cauliflower mash and sprinkle with the parsley.
