Becca here with one of my family's favorite meals for several years now. An extra bonus is that it's very freezer friendly, and cooks in the slow cooker! I like to buy beef stew meat in bulk and freeze it in quart zipper bags with the sauce ingredients so all I have to do is pour the bag into the slow cooker and it's ready to go at dinner time! It doesn't get much quicker or easier than that! I think it tastes just like a dish you'd get at a good Asian Restaurant, and the beef is so tender it literally falls apart. I serve it over brown rice or quinoa with a bit of the sauce drizzled on top to make it extra yummy. Enjoy!
2 pounds beef stew meat
1 Tablespoon dried ginger
2 Tablespoons minced garlic
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup brown sugar (or organic cane sugar)
4 large green onions
Combine all ingredients in slow cooker and cook on low 4-6 hours or until meat is cooked throughout & very tender. The time will vary depending on the size of the stew meat chunks, as well as your slow cooker. Over the years I've owned 2-3, and found that each of them cook at different speeds.
If making for the freezer: Double or triple recipe, adding each batch into a quart sized zipper freezer bag. When ready to cook, add contents of bag to slow cooker and cook on high 6-8 hours or until cooked throughout & tender.
