Savoury Pepper Steak

We are once again back to our slow cook pot cooking. I shan't go ranting and raving about the pros of slow cook pot cooking, if not this would be a very long post. To put simply, food is always ready when we are ready for dinner. We always like to make a thick stew and serve it with either rice or pasta or the newcomer, couscous. Easy and fussy free!

******************************************
1 kg beef chuck, cubed
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
Black pepper to taste
1 medium onion, chopped
1 small clove garlic, minced
2 large green bell peppers, seeded and cut into strips
1 can (14oz) whole tomatoes, undrained
1 beef stock cube
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp Worchestershire sauce

1. Combine flour, salt and pepper. Dredge beef cubes to coat thoroughly. Add to slow cooker with onion, garlic and bell peppers. Stir to combine.
2. Combine tomatoes with beef cube, soy sauce and Worchestershire sauce. Pour into slow cooker, coating meat well. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours.
3. If you prefer a thicker gravy, make a smooth paste of 3 tbsp flour and 3 tbsp water and stir into slow cooker. Cover and cook until thickened.
