Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 pound diced beef
  • 1 (15 oz) can canned diced tomatoes
  • 2 bell peppers
  • 1 onion
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • ½ teaspoon caraway seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  • Sauté the diced beef in a skillet or frying pan with salt, pepper and caraway seeds until the meat is browned on the surface. This only takes a few minutes. If you use very lean meat, you might have to add a splash of oil to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
    1 pound diced beef, ½ teaspoon caraway seeds, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • Meanwhile, add sliced onions, diced bell peppers, finely diced or grated garlic, canned diced tomatoes, tomato puree, paprika and beef stock to your crock pot and mix well.
    1 (15 oz) can canned diced tomatoes, 2 bell peppers, 1 onion, 3 garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon tomato paste, 2 cups beef broth, ½ teaspoon paprika
  • Add the browned beef and flour to the slow cooker, and stir to combine. Cover with a lid, and set to cook on high for 4-5 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours.
    1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • Add any extra seasoning to taste if needed, and serve.
