Gourmet Beef Casserole - with photo

[WeeBo]

Thanks for this absolutely delicious recipe. Only the second dinner we have cooked in our new Thermomix and we loved it!!

What was your first WeeBo?  Welcome to the forum by the way.

Hi and thanks for the welcome. I am getting slightly addicted and now have a pile of recipes printed out to try. Very exciting! Our first dinner was Butter Chicken from the EDC and it was great too.

I have just added this to my menu for the week.

Looks amazing and I can't wait to try it out.

Nom nom 

ETA, Also where can I get Malt vinegar from? And is there a substitute?

[quirkycooking]

I just used balsamic vinegar, and it was delicious!

[Jabejak]

I found the vinegar at my supermarket, but did think about using the balsamic.

Thanks

I made this today and its probably the most successful casserole I've ever made - it was absolutely delicious. 

I couldn't find malt vinegar so I think I used sherry vinegar and I didn't have an worcester sauce so I used mushroom ketchup ...

Thank you very much it was really fabulous

You can make Worcester sauce in the TM, Nik.

Thank you for that CC.  We hardly ever buy worcester sauce but when I do it seems to get used up really quickly.  I think DH must have a secret love of it and keeps forgetting to tell me.

I also have all the ingredients for it apart from the vinegar.

Each time I post a recipe I think of the UK based members wondering about the availability of ingredients or what substitutions you may need to make.  I know while our daughter was living in London for 2 years she would often ask what could she use instead of this and that!!!!! As Jo commented in an above post - balsamic vinegar works well.  Cheers - Robyn

Can definitely get malt vinegar in the UK - it's what everyone puts on their chips! Harder to buy here in Australia I've found.

I have not had a problem getting  Cornwells  malt vinegar at Coles and Woolies.

Gert, yep it is available but I not such a large display or as prominent as in the UK.

I turned this into a stew for tea tonight as I only had 350g chuck steak . Followed the rest of the ingredients as per johnro's recipe.  Cooked the meat at 90^o/30 mins/reverse/speed 1 then added potato, carrot, zucchini & sweetcorn and cooked for a further 50 mins/90^o/reverse/speed 1.  Thickened at the end with cornflour/water. Good one Robyn, such a versatile recipe.

Excuse the messy casserole dish - I'd never get a job as a food photographer like JulieO & Maddy
