Slow cooked Roast Beef with onion and rose wine

Perfect weather for slow cookers, pot roasts and oven roasts

Making the most of the cold winter days, we decided to make a beef roast. This is a recipe I have been making for many years (one from my late mother's recipe book) - perfect for the weekend

First seal the meat in a pot with olive oil, making sure it's brown on all sides

Transfer to the slow cooker.

In the same pot - braise the sliced onions and add salt and pepper and some origanum.

Next add to the slow cooker around the meat.

Once the meat has cooked for 2 hours (on high heat) - add a half a small bottle of rose wine. When cooked the flavour is absolutely marvellous.

In the meantime boil some baby potatoes until you can pierce with a knife or a fork.
Scratch them with a fork and place on a baking sheet.

And Voila the finished meal

Absolutely nothing to beat roast meat with roast potatoes and a green vegetable

The gravy from the cooked dish is delicious with the rose wine and onion.
