Slow stew

It's good to be appreciated sometimes. The kids liked this.

500g chuck or stewing steak.
700g onions
1 large red pepper
2 parsnips
500ml passata or ragout
herbs, seasoning

In a 22-25cm stewpot:
Chop the onions & fry until soft & transparent.
Chop the meat into 2cm cubes, & brown with the onions.
Add the red pepper, diced.
Add the parsnips, also diced.
Add the passata & herbs
(Add a dash of soya sauce or chili paste for taste)
Bring to the simmer, then place in an oven for 2hrs at 150C.

Serve with baked potatoes (>1hr at 150C)

It keeps warm, well, for stop-out wives arriving late home from work (that's what she says)
