Serves 6 hungry adults.
Ingredients
• 500g stewing beef
• 100g frozen chopped onions
• 200g frozen chopped carrots
• 100g frozen chopped turnip/swede
• 1 tin drained chickpeas

• 2 tbsp tomato puree
• 150ml beef stock (made from stock cube)
• 1 tsp oregano

Method
Combine all the ingredients in a slow cooker/crockpot/heavy casserole dish. Stir well so that the herbs and spices coat the meat and vegetables.
If cooking in the slow cooker/crockpot, put the lid on and cook on high for 6 hours.
If cooking in a heavy casserole dish in the oven, add a further 400ml of hot water to the pot. Put the lid on and cook at 160 degrees for 3 hours.
The dish is ready when the meat is tender. Serve with rice or mash. Eat with a spoon.
