A relishing meal for the whānau that’s packed full of veggies and tasty tender beef. All assembled in a slow cooker, this slow cooker teriyaki beef, is great any day of the week.  Serve with rice tossed with toasted sesame seeds, sesame oil and sliced spring onion for a flavourful accompaniment.

  • 1kg beef chuck or rump steak, diced

  • 400g teriyaki stir fry sauce

  • 1 cup beef stock

  • 2 carrots, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced

  • 1 broccoli, cut into florets

Method

  1. Place the beef in a slow cooker, along with the onion, teriyaki sauce and beef stock. Stir to combine.

  2. Cook on high for 4-5 hours or until the beef is just tender.

  3. Add carrots and broccoli and stir to combine. Cook for a final 20-30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

  4. Serve and enjoy.

Top tip:

  • To bulk up this meal, add a sliced capsicum in with the broccoli and carrots.

  • Adjust the amount of teriyaki sauce to taste, as some sauces have a stronger flavour. For a milder taste, use a low-sodium teriyaki sauce or reduce the amount slightly and add more stock or water.
