Ingredients Quantity
- 500–700g beef chunks or stew meat

- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 1 cup water or beef broth
Optional Additions
- Sliced onions or mushrooms for extra depth
- Garlic for added flavor
- A splash of soy sauce for richness
- Black pepper or paprika for seasoning
Tips for Success
- Use a tougher cut of beef (like chuck) for best slow-cooked tenderness
- Cook low and slow to allow the meat to become melt-in-your-mouth soft
- Stir occasionally if possible to evenly coat the meat in gravy
- Adjust thickness by adding less or more liquid
Instructions
- Place beef chunks into the slow cooker.
- Pour gravy mix and water or broth over the meat.
- Stir gently to coat.
- Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours.
- Once the beef is tender, serve hot over cooked rice.
