Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless beef (round or rump) (500 g)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil (50 mL)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 medium onions, quartered
  • 2 can Beans in Tomato Sauce  (14 oz./398 mL)

  • 1/8 tsp pepper (0.5 mL)

Instructions

Cut beef into 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces. Heat oil in large saucepan or dutch oven; add meat and garlic and sauté until meat is browned. Add remaining ingredients except cornstarch and water. Simmer covered 1 – 1½ hours or until meat is tender. Mix cornstarch with water and stir into stew; cook over high heat until mixture comes to a boil and sauce is thickened and clear. Serve over hot mashed potatoes or noodles or in a bowl with crusty bread.

Stir and cook on low or 25% power for 55-60 minutes stirring after 30 minutes, or until beef is tender. Mix cornstarch and water and stir into mixture. Cook on high 4-6 minutes stirring after 2 minutes, or until sauce is thickened and clear
