Ingredients

• - Thyme Bunched Herb
• 1 Kg Fresh Onion Pack. 1kg - Ofoodi African Store
• 1 Piece Red Bell Pepper, 1pcs | Gopuff
• 100 G Jumbo Garlic 100g
• - Beef Topside Steak (1 Kg) Thin
• - Knorr Stock Pot Vegetable
• 350G Fried Tomato Sauce, 350G
• - Greenfields Ground White Pepper

Instructions

1. 1. Gather all ingredients: 1 kg beef topside steak, 1 large onion (peeled and sliced), 2 garlic cloves (minced), 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried basil, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp ground white pepper, 1/2 tsp salt, 250 ml vegetable stock (from Knorr Stock Pot Vegetable), 2 tbsp fried tomato sauce, 1 red bell pepper (sliced), a small bunch of fresh thyme sprigs, and fresh basil leaves (optional for garnish).
2. 2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil (replace olive oil light spread with regular olive oil for authenticity) in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly browned. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
3. 3. Transfer the sautéed onion and garlic to the bottom of the slow cooker. Season the beef with salt, ground white pepper, dried oregano, dried basil, and dried thyme, rubbing the spices evenly over the surface of the meat.
4. 4. Place the seasoned beef on top of the onion and garlic in the slow cooker. In a small bowl, mix the vegetable stock and fried tomato sauce until well combined, then pour this mixture over the beef.
5. 5. Add the sliced red bell pepper to the slow cooker, arranging it around the beef. Scatter the fresh thyme sprigs on top for added aroma. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low heat for 8 hours or on high heat for 4-5 hours, allowing the beef to become tender and absorb the flavors.
6. 6. Once the cooking time is complete, carefully remove the beef from the slow cooker and place it on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the beef into bite-sized pieces.
7. 7. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and stir it into the cooking liquid to coat it evenly. Allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes on the 'keep warm' setting to absorb more flavor.
8. 8. Serve the Italian beef hot, optionally garnished with fresh basil leaves. Pair with a side of steamed rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread. Enjoy!
