2 lbs of beef cut into 1″ (ish) cubes – I asked the guy at the meat counter for the best type\/quality of beef (you need some marbly fat)
\n1\/4 cup all-purpose flour
\n1\/2 teaspoon salt
\n1\/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
\n1 clove of garlic – minced
\n1 bay leaf
\n1 teaspoon paprika
\n1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
\n1 shallot – chopped (all recipes I found called for onion but ick)
\n2 cups beef broth
\n1\/2 cup red wine
\n4 baby red and 4 baby white potatoes – quartered (left skin on)
\n4 carrots – peeled and sliced
\n10 oz white mushrooms – sliced (no recipe I found called for this but I love mushrooms)<\/p>\n
For later: 1\/4 cup flour and 1\/4 cup cream<\/p>\n
All of the recipes called for celery – also yuck. But if you like it, go for it. <\/p>\n
Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n Place meat in the slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Pour over the meat and stir to coat the meat with the flour mixture. <\/p>\n Stir in the garlic, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, beef broth, wine and veggies. Then put in the bay leaf and stir in but kind of on top.<\/p>\n
