Beef Stew before stewing<\/p><\/div>\n

Total time:\u00a0 5.5 to 10 hours.<\/p>\n

It all depends on the size of your crock-pot. I use the larger amounts now because I have a 5 quart Rival crock-pot<\/a>!<\/p>\n

1-2 pounds of beef, any style cut, chopped into 1″ to 2″ cubes
\n3-4 potatoes, quartered
\n2-3 carrots, cut into 1 inch pieces
\n1-2 stalks of celery, finely chopped
\n1 onion, finely chopped
\n1-3 cloves of garlic, minced
\n1 bay leaf
\n1 tablespoon Sambal Oelek<\/a>
\n1 teaspoon coriander seed
\n1 teaspoon yellow mustard seed
\n1 teaspoon sugar
\n1\/4 teaspoon black pepper
\nsalt to taste<\/p>\n

Place into crock-pot in this order:
\ngarlic
\nSambal Oelek
\n<\/a>celery
\nonions
\nbeef
\nremaining seasonings except salt
\npotatoes
\ncarrots<\/p>\n

Fill crock-pot with water until just below the vegetables – or to the tops of the vegetables. Cook on high for 1 hour, then simmer for 4 to 6 hours. Alternatively, just let it simmer 8 to 10 hours. Salt to taste just before serving.<\/p>\n

Caution! Sambal Oelek is HOT HOT HOT!<\/p>\n

I normally use a normal spoon to dish out my Sambal Oelek, and I use one heaping and a half scoop, which is about the equivalent of 1 tablespoon. That’s about as warm as I like it. Some chili isn’t that hot. Just use caution.<\/p>\n

I start my crock-pot at 9:30am, and it simmers until 6pm. I don’t use any thickeners, but if you like your stew thick, definitely add some potato or cornstarch just before serving.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
