Ingredients
For the Beef Stew:
- 525 g Stewing Steak cut into cubes
- 2 tbsp Plain Flour seasoned with salt and pepper
- 2 tbsp Oil
- 1 Large Onion sliced
- 3 Carrots sliced
- 1 Swede chopped
- 375 g Beef Stock
- 1 tsp Tomato Puree
For the Atora Suet Dumplings:
- 100 g Self-Raising Flour
- 50 g Atora Original Suet
- ½ tsp Salt
- Cold Water to mix
Instructions
- Prepare the Beef: Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F, Gas Mark 4). Cut the stewing steak into cubes and toss in the seasoned flour.
- Brown the Beef and Vegetables: Fry the vegetables in oil until golden, then remove from the pan. Divide the cubes of meat into four batches, browning each batch separately in the oil.
- Combine and Bake: Place the meat, vegetables, stock, and tomato puree in a casserole dish and season well. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook for 2 ½ hours until the beef is tender.
- Make the Dumplings: Mix the self-raising flour, Atora suet, and salt in a bowl. Add cold water gradually until a firm but soft dough forms.
- Add the Dumplings: Divide the dumpling dough into 6 or 8 pieces. Drop the dumplings into the bubbling stew 20 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
- Cook the Dumplings: Cover the casserole dish tightly and continue cooking for 20 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and have doubled in size.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the beef stew and dumplings hot, straight from the oven.
Notes
