Slow Cooker Oyster Blade Steak and Vegetable Stew

Slow Cooker Oyster Blade Steak and Vegetable Stew

In an attempt to balance work and coming home late after school pick ups I am vowing to cook one slow cooker meal a week.  I am hoping this will help combat the I AM STARVING comment from the boys every afternoon as we get home close to normal dinner time.

This week is the first week back to the work school routine and I kicked it off with a oyster blade steak and vegetable stew.  This is the first time I have slow cooked with oyster blade and it was a winner.  There is a lot of marbling in the oyster blade which leads to a really flavoursome meat that is juicy and succulent and just falls apart (perfect for the kiddos).

I flavoured the dish with a diluted oyster sauce mix (I thought it was kinda a great mix oyster blade steak with oyster sauce) and it worked a treat.

INGREDIENTS

800gm (4) Oyster Blade Steak, fat removed and cubed
4 Baby Potatoes, diced
2 Carrots, diced
1 Tbs Minced Garlic
1 Cup Chicken Stock
3 Tbs Oyster Sauce
Sprinkling of dried oregano
1 Tbs Plain Flour
Olive oil, for cooking

LET’S PUT IT ALL TOGETHER

1. In a frypan with a little olive oil fry off the garlic. Add the beef and then sprinkle over the flour and oregano.  Stir to coat and cook for 5 minutes or until the meat starts to brown.  Scrape into the slow cooker.  Alternatively my slow cooker has a saute function so I do it all in the slow cooker bowl.

2. Mix the stock and oyster sauce together, add the remaining ingredients, then pour the sauce over and mix to combine. Set to low and cook for 8-10 hours.  This can be done on high for 4 hours.

    Making for my pregnant girlfriend, she will probably only drink the broth but at least I know it will be good for her?!!
