We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef generously with salt and pepper. Add to hot oil and brown well on all sides, about 15 minutes. Transfer beef to slow cooker.

  • Step 2: To slow cooker, add in celery, carrots, red onion, potatoes, salt, pepper, garlic, parsley, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, wine, beef broth, and tomato paste in the crock pot (I used a 6 qt crockpot for this stew) Cook on LOW for 10 hours or on HIGH for 6-7 hours.

  • Step 3: About 30 minutes before serving, mix the flour and the water together in a small dish and pour into the crockpot. Mix until well combined. This will add a nice thickness to the stew. Next add in your frozen peas and corn. Continue cooking covered for 30 minutes.
