Slow Cooked Beef & Cabbage Casserole

Here is one that is low-carb but hearty! Let's face it we are heading into treat season and to have a wholesome standby is worth having on hand. The recipe is easy in the slow cooker. I am enjoying my new multicooker where the first 15 minutes can sear the meat. Feel free to add the extra veg like turnip, celeriac or leek. Effectively the cabbage replaces the potato here to reduce the carb content.
This is delicious and satisfying. For added punch add some Savage Cabbage kimchi before serving…
 

• ½ kg stewing beef / diced beef
• ½  tsp dried oregano, crushed
• ½ tsp ground cumin
• ½ tsp paprika
• ½ tsp ground black pepper
• Good pinch of salt
• Beef Tallow / lard for frying
• 6 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
• 4 small garlic cloves, minced
• 1 onion
• 500ml beef broth
• 4 cups coarsely shredded green cabbage

 
Coat the beef in the spice mix. Heat the pan and fry the beef in tallow or lard for a few minutes. Add to slow cooker with chopped carrots, garlic and broth. Turn it on for 4 hours on high or 8 on low. In the last half hour add the shredded cabbage to cook.
