Slow-cooked beef stew, what's not to love? Taking advantage of the root veg starting to come through in the cooler weather and our You Plate It stew base, it has a lovely depth of flavour. Not to mention, once you put it in the slow cooker, it's set and forget. Winning! Important Note: This is a 'slow cook' recipe, so it must be started in the morning. You can also cook it in a low oven, around 120°C, in an ovenproof dish covered with foil for 8 hrs.
