Let's Get Started
- Season the beef, then dust in the flour.
Heat the oil in a pan and brown the meat.
Remove beef, turn down the heat and add the onions and garlic. Cover and cook until softened, 10-15 minutes.
Return the meat to the pan and add the tomatoes and paprika. Stir well and cook for 1 minute before pouring in the stock. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove the lid, add the peppers and continue cooking for a further 30 minutes. At this point the sauce should be thick and the beef tender. Scatter with chopped parsley.- Divide up into suitable portions and freeze down. When ready to eat, remove from freezer and thaw slowly in a fridge or cooler bag. Heat in microwave until piping hot throughout.
