Ingredients

• 2 lbs Beef stew meat (cubes)
• 2 cups Beef broth
• 1 medium, diced Onion
• 3 medium, sliced Carrots
• 3 medium, diced Potatoes
• 3 cloves Minced garlic
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Sear the beef cubes on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Transfer the browned beef cubes to the Crock Pot.

Step 3

In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Add them to the Crock Pot.

Step 4

Add the carrots, potatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, tomato paste, salt, black pepper, and dried thyme to the Crock Pot.

Step 5

Stir the ingredients gently to combine.

Step 6

Cover the Crock Pot with its lid and cook on LOW for 7 hours or HIGH for 4 hours, until the beef is tender and the vegetables are fully cooked.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water together to form a slurry. Add this to the Crock Pot, stirring well to thicken the sauce. Let cook for an additional 20-30 minutes on HIGH.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot as a standalone meal or over rice or mashed potatoes.
