About
I made this dish on pure culinary instinct. No recipe, just experimenting with flavours.
It was a case of 'what's left in the freezer and cupboard before the monthly food shopping trip'
I found some Stewing beef, broad beans, carrots, onions and this was the result 3 1/2 hours later.
Tasted really delicious too.
Did something I hadn't done before-Coated beef in a mixture of light flour, crushed garlic, salt, pepper, paprika and refrigerated it overnight.
The result was excellent and not only did the seasoning flavour the meat but if also tenderised it beautifully, ready to cook in the casserole.
