SLOW-COOKED ASIAN BEEF WITH SWEET POTATO



Slow-Cooked Asian Beef With Sweet Potato image

From a fantastic site I stumbled upon the other day. I'm posting the original recipe but I made it slightly differently-same amount of sauce, but only enough meat and sweet potato for the two of us as we love tons of sauce over our rice.

Number Of Ingredients 11

olive oil flavored cooking spray
600 g beef blade steak, fat trimmed, cut in 3cm cubes

2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
1 tablespoon red curry paste
400 g chopped tomatoes, no added salt
1 cup water
1 tablespoon fish sauce (optional) or 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional)
750 g sweet potatoes (I prefer the orange one)
1 teaspoon brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 160°C Heat a large flameproof ovenproof pan over a high heat, spray with oil. Add beef in batches. Cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
  • Return pan to a medium-high heat. Spray with oil. Add onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add garlic, ginger and curry paste. Cook for 1 minute. Return beef to pan. Add tomatoes and water and fish sauce or soy sauce if using. Stir to combine and bring to the boil. Cover and place in oven for 1 hour.
  • Add sweet potato, stir, and return to oven for 30 minutes. Remove and stir through sugar. I garnished with a little chopped fresh coriander and basil but it wasn't in the recipe.
  • Serve with rice and vegetables.

Provided by Caroline Hire - Food writer

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 2h45m

Yield Serves a family of 4 - 6 or makes 6-8 toddler meals

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 carrots, finely diced (about 130g)
1-2 sticks celery, finely diced (about 130g)
2 fat cloves garlic, crushed
400-500g braising steak
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 low-salt beef stock cube
2 tbsp tomato purée
1 x 25g pack parsley, stalks and leaves finely chopped separately
1kg sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
knob of butter
handful grated cheddar

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based pan. Add the onions and cook for 2 mins, then add the carrot and celery and cook until softened. Add a little water if the mixture sticks.
  • Add the braising steak and cook until browned, then stir in the garlic and cinnamon and cook for a further 1 - 2 mins until the aromas are released.
  • Add the stock cube to 500ml boiling water and stir into the meat, along with the tomato purée and parsley stalks. Bring to the boil and simmer covered for 1 hour, then take off the lid and simmer for another hour or until the meat is very tender. Stir in the chopped parsley leaves.
  • Transfer the stew into a medium-sized ceramic dish (that would be big enough for four adults), or into 6 - 8 large ramekins for make-ahead toddler portions.
  • Meanwhile, steam or boil the sweet potatoes until tender. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas mark 6. Drain the potatoes well and mash with the butter. Spoon on top of the meat, sprinkle with the cheese and cook on the top shelf for around 20 minutes until golden and bubbling.
  • Alternatively, cover and freeze the pie or mini pies for another time. Defrost thoroughly before cooking - you can do this by leaving it in the fridge overnight if you like. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas mark 6 and cook for around 30 - 35 mins or until golden, bubbling and hot throughout.

BEEF & SWEET POTATO STEW (SLOW COOKER)



Beef & Sweet Potato Stew (Slow Cooker) image

This stew is an entire meal, veggies and all. It is thickened just before serving with ground toasted rice, which gives it nice toasted undertones. I am sure other veggies could be added, but I think the green bean sweet potato combo is pretty good. Adapted from Secrets of Slow Cooking.

Provided by Chandra M

Categories     Stew

Time 4h25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 lbs beef stew meat, cut in 1-2-inch chunks (I use a chuck roast & cut it up)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks (or 1 large)
2 small onions, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 cup basmati rice
1/2 cup unsalted peanuts
1/3 cup dried apricot, halved
1/2 lb green beans, trimmed and cut in half
salt & pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Season the beef with salt & pepper.
  • Heat the oil over medium high heat and a large skillet.
  • Brown all sides of the beef in batches, transfer browned beef to the slow cooker.
  • Deglaze the skillet with 1.5 cups water and pour the liquid over the beef.
  • Add the spices and stir to combine.
  • Layer the onions, garlic, and sweet potatoes over the beef.
  • Cook on the low setting for 4 hours or until the beef is tender, and the sweet potatoes are easily pierced with a fork but retain their shape.
  • Meanwhile, toast the rice in a small skillet over medium-high heat until just browned.
  • Transfer to a plate or bowl to cool.
  • When cool, run through a spice mill or coffee grinder until it is a fine powder.
  • Also grind half of the peanuts.
  • Coarsely chop the other half of the peanuts.
  • Add the powdered rice and ground peanuts to the cooker and stir gently, taking care not to smash the potatoes.
  • Bring a small pan with 1" water in the bottom to a boil.
  • Add the apricots and green beans.
  • Cook until the green beans are bright green and still slightly crisp (about 5 minutes).
  • Drain and stir the beans & apricots into the stew.
  • Season with salt & pepper to taste.
  • Serve sprinkled with the chopped peanuts.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast or brisket are great options for slow cooking, as they are tough cuts that become tender when cooked slowly.
  • Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef in a pan over medium-high heat before adding it to the slow cooker helps to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your slow cooker beef stew. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
  • Add some herbs and spices: Season your slow cooker beef stew with a variety of herbs and spices to taste. Some good options include garlic, onion powder, paprika, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Cook on low and slow: The key to tender, flavorful slow cooker beef stew is to cook it on low and slow. Cook the stew for at least 8 hours, or up to 12 hours for even more tender meat.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker Asian beef with sweet potato is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the sweet potatoes are a delicious and healthy addition. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover beef.
