Hearty Beef, Orange & Lentil Stew
Its called Hearty Beef Stew for a reason. Packed with powerful flavours of orange and cinnamon to bring out the beautiful taste of the slow cooked beef, we can't go past this one-pot wonder. Ease of cooking is at the core of this dish as the oven or slow cooker does all the hard work. Serve on-top rice, pasta or mashed potato with a serving of seasonal greens. Freeze leftovers or enjoy for lunch the following day.

- This stew can be frozen and re heated.
- This stew is delicious the next day after the flavours have developed further.
- Look for beef with a marbling of fat and connective tissue as this adds flavour and tenderness to the beef.

Bring stove top to medium-high, using an oven proof crock pot heat oil and saute onion. When onions start to soften add the beef and brown. Remove from heat and add all the remaining ingredients. Stir well to combine and cover. Place in the oven and cook for 4-6 hours until the meat is tender and falling apart.
Garnish with strips of orange rind and fresh parsley leaves. We like to serve on-top of potato or kumara mash, but would go well with pasta or rice too. For a pop of green serve with your favourite seasonal greens.
Slow cooker method: This dish can also be made in the slow cooker as per the method above. Ensure you soften the onions and brown the meat first. Cook on high for 4 hours, or low for 6-8 hours.
