Preparation

Step 1

In any case, this beef stew crock pot recipe is perfect for a new start and a new year. Why? First off, it’s a slow cooker recipe, and slow cooker recipes help to get you back into the routine of having meals at a regular time and get you out of holiday mode. You do the prep, go away for your work day and you come home to a house that smells wonderfully like dinner. All you have to do is add the last bit of salt to taste, and dinner’s on the table! This stew is made with plenty of winter root vegetables too, because that’s what’s readily available and they make it a good, stick-to-your-ribs kind of meal. Make sure not to skip the first step of browning the meat: not only does this add flavor, but if you skip it, your meat ends up tasting watery (ask me how I know).

Heat coconut oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Brown the stewing beef, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Sprinkle about a 1/4 tsp of salt over the beef as it cooks. The beef just needs to be lightly seared and not fully cooked.Transfer the beef pieces into the crock pot (3 quart size) once they have been browned on all sides.

Add onions and celery to the same pan that the beef was cooked in. Brown the onions and celery for about five minutes and then add them to the crock pot.

Add the chopped carrots, parsnips and sweet potato to the crock pot.

In a small bowl mix together the bone broth, coconut milk and curry powder. Pour this mixture over the contents of the crock pot. Cover and cook on the low setting of the crock pot for 8 hours, or on the high setting for 4 hours.★ Please Share This ★
