Slow Cooker Beef Ragu 👇
Cals: 750 | Protein: 63g | Fibre: 8g (approx cals per serving)
This makes 4 generous servings (it could stretch to 5 or 6 smaller portions)
800g lean stewing beef
1 onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 sticks celery, chopped
150g carrots, chopped
800g chopped tomatoes
2 tbsp tomato puree
2 bay leaves
2 tsp dried thyme
100ml beef stock
salt and pepper to taste
400g tagliatelle
1. Add everything to the slow cooker except the tagliatelle, stirring together until well mixed.
2. Cook on low for around 8 hours or high for around 5 hours. The beef is ready when it’s tender and pulls apart easily.
3. Remove the bay leaves, then use two forks to break up the beef and stir it through the sauce. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Cook the tagliatelle according to the packet instructions, drain it and serve with the ragu spooned over the top.
