Method
Put the beef into a pan and cover with cold water. Add all the remaining ingredients, cover and bring to a simmer. Season well and then transfer all the ingredients to the ceramic pot. Place the ceramic pot in the slow cooker base. Place the lid onto the slow cooker. Cook for approximately
10 minutes. The cooking liquid can be used as a base to make gravy. Cut the beef into slices and spoon a little of the cooking liquid over. Serve with vegetables and garnish with fresh parsley.
IMPORTANT: When buying a joint of meat, make sure that it will fit the ceramic pot. It should fit into the ceramic pot so that when it is covered with liquid, it will still be 2.5cm below the rim of the pot. The joint must not stick out above the rim and there should be enough room to cover the meat with water. The shape of the meat is just as important as the weight.
