Ingredients

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan.

  3. Deglaze the frying pan with the red wine and continue to cook for 2–3 minutes, or until the volume of the liquid has reduced by half. Pour the liquid into the slow cooker.

  4. Add the onion, rosemary, bay leaves and stock to the slow cooker. The liquid should cover the meat – add more stock or boiling water if needed.

  5. Cook on high for 8 hours. Serve with mash.
