Method
- 1
Melt the butter in a large heavy-based pan and brown the beef stewing steak in batches over a high heat until coloured all over.
- 2
Add the sliced onions and cook for 5 minutes until starting to soften.
- 3
Peel and chop the potatoes and swede into chunks and add to the pan along with the beef stock, worcestershire sauce and dried thyme.
- 4
Bring to a gentle simmer, cover and cook for 35-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the potatoes have started to break down and thicken the gravy.
- 5
Season to taste and mash a few of the potato chunks against the side of the pan to thicken further before serving in deep bowls.
