WHISKY BEEF image

Yield 2-4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 generous measure of a good single Malt (I find Glenmorangie works well)
1 cup soft brown sugar
1 to 2 chopped leeks
2/3 cup soy sauce
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 Beef or vegetable stock
1 tin of chopped tomatoes
1 teaspoon dried leaf thyme
Salt, pepper and seasoning (I am a big fan of Aromat)
2- 4 Beef steaks

Steps:

Preheat your slow cooker or crock pot on HIGH. Quick fry the steaks so that they are lightly braised on both sides, then place in your slow cooker or crock pot. Turn it to a low heat. Dice and fry the onion in a wok or frying pan. When the onion is golden, add the leeks and quickly fry them too. Next add the stock then stir in the chopped tomatoes Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, lemon juice, mix together and then add the Whisky (whisky lovers may find this hard to do, but it is well worth it!). Add in the thyme and seasoning and ensure it is well mixed. Take off the heat, then add the soft brown sugar, give it a quick stir. Pour the mixture over the beef and cook on LOW for approximately 6-8 hours. Serve with roast parsnips, roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding.
