SLOW COOKED BEEF AND PRUNES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was living in Manchester, working for an organisation, that supported primarily Jewish people with mental health, and learning difficulties to live independently within the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My energetic, warm, dynamic friend & colleague Hadassa introduced me to the idea of Beef with prunes, I was dubious how it would work, but was quickly converted to this Sephardic dish.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hadassa used to serve this quite regularly for Shabbos lunch, It is amazingly easy to prepare, and is a wonderful alternative to a traditional chulent that fills the house with the smells of a Moroccan spice market when cooking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0This is my slightly tweaked version of her dish, to commemorate Hadassa\u2019s 19th<\/sup>\u00a0yartzite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients to serve 6.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1kilo chuck steak pre-diced<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 red onion peeled and chopped<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 white onion peeled and chopped<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 cloves of garlic peeled and whole<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 inch of fresh ginger, peeled and chopped<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 teaspoon dried cumin<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd teaspoon dried coriander<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd teaspoon ground cinnamon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd teaspoon sea salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 bay leaves<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd cup pitted olives (optional)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

250 ml of beef or vegetable stock<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The juice of one orange<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 glass red wine (I use Kiddush wine as it adds to the depth of flavour)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd cup of chopped flat leaf parsley for serving<\/p>\n\n\n\n

200 grams pitted prunes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 table spoon of rice flour, placed in a plastic food bag mixed with 1 teaspoon paprika and \u00bd teaspoon salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Method <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Line the slow cooker with a slow cooker bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put the chuck steak into the food bag with the seasoned flour, shake it well, so all the meat is covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put all the ingredients apart from the parsley into the slow cooker, making sure that the liquid covers everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put on the lid and cook either 2 hours on high, then turn onto low for at least 8 hours or cook over night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sprinkle parsley over before serving. Serve with rice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
