Recipe type: Breakfast
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2.2 lb diced stewing beef
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 onions, diced small
- 2 cloves garlic, diced small
- 3 tbsp flour
- 2 cups red wine
- 1½ cups beef stock
- 1 tbsp passasta
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 small block cheddar
- 3 cups leftover mash
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large casserole dish and brown the beef.
- Remove from the pan and stir the butter in to deglaze the pan a little. Add the onion and sautee until soft, then add the garlic and cook for a further minute before stirring in the flour.
- Pop the beef back in then pour over the wine, stock and passata. Season and place the lid on and let it bubble away gently until the meat is tender.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F.
- Meanwhile, season the mash and form into small circles. Chop the cheddar into cubes and place 1 in the middle of each circle, then fashion each into a ball of mash with a cheese centre.
- Pour the beef stew into a baking dish and top with the mash balls.
- Bake for around 30 minutes until the mash has crisped up and turned golden.
