CROCKPOT BEEF STEW II
1 lb. beef bourguignon (or cheaper cut)
3 large sweet potatoes (cut into 1" thick slices)
2 cans beef bouillon (or broth or consommée)
2 small cans tomato paste
3-4 handfulls of assorted veggies (I used frozen green & yellow beans
and carrots)
1 lb. fresh mushrooms (quartered)
1 large onion (diced)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 cup flour
Mix bite sized pieces of meat in flour, brown in some oil along with the
diced garlic.
While meat is browning, combine beef bouillon & tomato paste in a
crock pot, mix well.
Pre-cook the sweet potatoes until just tender, add to crock pot along
with onions and any raw veggies that you may use. Add enough water
to cover and cook on low for as long as you want, (I let it cook for
about 5 hours.
I added the frozen veggies and some quartered mushrooms for about
the last 1 hour or so.
I thickened it with a bit of flour and water, let it cook another 15
minutes uncovered and that was it.
