Cooking Guide:

Slow-Braised Beef Chuck (serves approx. 3 per 500g)

Ingredients:

• Fresh Halal British Beef Chuck (Boneless)
• Plain flour
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 2 onions (chopped)
• 2 carrots (sliced)
• 2 celery stalks (sliced)
• 3 garlic cloves (minced)
• Beef stock or water
• Bay leaves and thyme (optional)
• Cooking oil

Preparation:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 160°C (Fan 140°C) or Gas Mark 3.
2. Season the Beef: Lightly coat the beef chuck with flour, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
3. Brown the Beef: In a large pan, heat a little oil over medium heat. Sear the beef on all sides for 4-5 minutes, creating a flavorful crust.
4. Prepare the Vegetables: Add the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic to the same pan and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
5. Transfer to a Casserole Dish: Place the browned beef and vegetables in a large casserole dish. Add enough beef stock or water to submerge the beef halfway. For added flavor, include bay leaves and thyme.
6. Slow Cook in the Oven: Cover the dish and cook for 3 to 3.5 hours, or until the beef is tender and falls apart easily.
7. Rest and Serve: Allow the beef to rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing or shredding. Serve with the rich braising liquid and vegetables.

Stovetop Option: Alternatively, slow cook the beef chuck on the stovetop by simmering in stock over low heat for 3-4 hours until tender.
