It was a happy accident when I discovered that the Thermomix could replace my slow cooker for my casserole needs. With only 60 minutes on the clock, how could it ever replace the deliciousness of tender meat that had been on low heat for hours? Pretty darn easy, it seems! We just love this Thermomix stew recipe, it has become a staple in our house.

Description
This is actually my ‘skeleton’ stew recipe. That is, you can tweak the ingredients to suit the contents of your fridge. Pop in your meat and veggies of choice and watch as those veggies reduce into a delicious sauce and the meat cooks to perfection. It was a happy accident when I discovered that the thermo mixer could replace my slow cooker for my casserole needs! This is a super easy, nutritious and delicious dinner that will be ready in an hour. A perfect ‘set and forget’ recipe. – Bec
