Beef & spinach

Name of Recipe: Beef and spinach
Number of People: 3-4 servings
Ingredients:
400 rump steak (1.5cm dice)
2 cloves garlic
2 red onions, chopped roughly
1 stalk celery with leaves, chopped roughly
30g olive oil
1/4 cup red wine
leaves from 4 sprigs fresh thyme
1/4 bunch parsley, chopped roughly
250g freshly cooked spinach (or use thawed frozen spinach but this is much finer than spinach you
would cook and chop yourself)
1 tblspn concentrated vegetable stock
200 ms water
cornflour to thicken
Preparation:
Place garlic, quartered onions and roughly chopped celery in TM bowl. Chop for 5 seconds on speed 7. Add oil, saute 3 minutes 100o on speed 1. Add the cubed beef, the wine and rest of ingredients except the cornflour and cook for 20 minutes on 100
o
C on reverse, soft speed. Thicken to your taste at the end of the cooking time with cornflour mixed with a little water.
Serve with mashed potato & vegies, over rice or place in casserole dish, top with some pastry and bake in the oven.
The mixture is best left to sit for a while for the flavours to develop.
You could use freshly chopped spinach but I had frozen packs of home grown spinach in the freezer and find it easier to work with than huge amounts of fresh spinach.
members' comments
Thermomixer - if you have lots of fresh spinach then you could place it in the Varoma while doing the initial cook and it will wilt down to more manageable quantities to add to the TMX bowl.
babymaker - Mmm 5/5 from us! we put the uncooked fresh baby spinach in the thermoserver and topped with the cooked meat and sauce so the heat from that cooked it, we then did mash potatoes with steamed veg in the varoma to go with it. You're right, the meat just got more tender sitting in the saver.
JD - Oct 2011 - I revisited this one today for the first time since I made it way back in 2009. Changed things slightly.
I used 400g blade steak cut into 3-4cm pieces & 150g water - cooked 50 mins/90
o
/reverse/speed 1 and used Thermomixer's suggestion of placing chopped fresh spinach in the varoma dish during this time to wilt. Added it to the bowl and cooked an extra 5 minutes before thickening slightly. Also added a tablespoon of FOSM with the liquid.

Good advice, hopefully I would have thought of that if I was using fresh. Appreciate your comments as they can only help other cooks.

Glad you liked it Babymaker. This must have been one of the first recipes I converted so didn't really know what I was doing at the time but it tasted OK so thought I'd be brave and post it
