How to Make Beef Ragu
This Beef Ragu is very easy to prepare with very minimal preparation required.
To make the Ragu, start by finely dicing carrot, celery, onion and garlic and place in the slow cooker along with beef, Passata, beef stock, oregano, flour, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Using a wooden or plastic spoon, stir everything to combine.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, remove lid and sauté for 30 minutes or until sauce has reduced. Now take the bay leaf and beef out and shred using two forks. Place shredded meat back into slow cooker and give it another mix to combine with the sauce.
