• Combine potatoes, onion, chorizo and garlic in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Pour mixture into slow cooker.

AFRICAN STEW

Steps:

• cut beef into 1 inch cubes
• heat butter in pan add onions, carrots, garlic and fry until pale gold
• add beef cubes and fry until well-sealed and brown
• stir in tomato paste, cloves, ginger, cayenne pepper, salt and vinegar
• pour in stock then bring to boil
• cover and leave for 2hrs until meat is tender, stirring from time to time
• Mix peanut butter with the flour
• add a little a at time to the simmering stew until it thickens.
• I often make loads more than this as it freezes well, just double up the quantities. I make it in a slow cooker and dont do from item 7 until it is about to be served or about to be frozen. It needs to be simmering well to thicken with the flour. I always find it best to remove quite a bit of the stock and mix it with the peanut butter mix first then mix it with the rest of the mixture as it goes very lumpy if you just add it and stir and if the beef is too tender it will just get lost in the stock
