2 kg bolar roast beef
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil (we love Olivado)
1 ½ cups red wine
1 bay leaf (we love Superb Herb)
1 tsp black pepper (crushed)
1 garlic clove (crushed)
1 large onion (quartered)
250 g bag of carrots (cut in pieces)
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 tbsp flour (we love Chantal Organics)
¼ cup red wine
Directions
Pat the meat dry then brown in the oil in a heavy fry pan.
Combine the browned beef, wine, onion, carrots, mushrooms, bay leaf, pepper and garlic, in your slow cooker or crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
Thicken meat juices after cooking for a great gravy: a tablespoon of flour or cornflour mixed to a paste with a little extra wine.
Serve with creamy mashed potato, minted peas and gravy.
