    I need a bit more than that. Veg, cooking time, parsnips? I'm thinking of getting a slow cooker. Yes or no?

    Re: Stew

    Fry your lamb for 10 mins to seal it.
    Add chopped garlic and half tube tomatoe puree.
    Add 2 knorr veg stockpots.
    Add tin tomatoes.
    Add your veg, potatoes, carrots, leeks, onions, etc, I like chopped broccoli added too. Fill with water.
    Cook for 2 hours.
    Add lamb gravy granules to thicken it up and cook for last half hour, I usually add doe boys or dumplings at this point.

    Re: Stew

    Was given a slow cooker last Christmas, so have made plenty of stews this year. One full slow cooker full of stew provides five large meals, so I freeze some of it. I’ve done all sorts, some with plenty of fresh herbs, some with dried herbs and I’ve used corned beef (very much a Valleys thing I think because I’d never come across it in Cardiff), chicken and more exotic stuff like venison, rabbit and game for the meat and, although I say it myself, they’ve all been delicious.

    The constants have been quite a few potatoes, one of those fresh veg stew packs you get from supermarkets, an extra carrot, peas, vegetable stock with flour to thicken it and garlic purée and Worcester sauce to flavour it. Also I always cook it on the lowest setting overnight.

    Re: Stew

    Stewing beef browned first
    Broth frozen from previous stews as a starter
    Potatoes, lots onions, carrots, maybe swede.
    since moving to Poland they have stew packs, so now add parsnips leeks & celeriac.
    Simmer for at least 4 hours
    Add dumplings with an hour to go
    Add Oxo cubes with 15 minutes to go
    Always make too much so freeze it as a starter for the next one
