Slow Cooked Beef Brisket with Onions
I saw a recipe on Cookpad a few days ago that caught my eye – slow cooked brisket with just onions, no liquid, forgot to bookmark it then couldn't find it again. So, I looked online, and found this recipe. Doesn't have the same name but I think it's the same. It's lovely. So little liquid to begin with, so much tender deliciousness at the end.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In the UK joints of brisket usually come ready rolled, and for this recipe you need a flat piece, so just snip the string and unroll. Dust both sides of the beef with flour and lots of black pepper. Heat the oil or dripping in a large frying pan. Preheat your slow cooker
- 2
Sear the beef in the pan on all sides, then set aside. Add the onions to the pan, with more fat if necessary.
- 3
Fry the onions until soft and staring to turn golden brown, then transfer to the warmed slow cooker.
- 4
Spread tomato paste on top of the beef, I used about 3 tbsp, as if you were icing a cake. Place the beef on top of the onions.
- 5
Add the peeled carrots, still whole, and the garlic cloves (whole and unpeeled) to the slow cooker. Add two big pinches of salt, and more black pepper.
- 6
Cover with the lid and cook for 1 and a half hours, then remove the beef from the slow cooker and cut into thick slices. Place back in the cooker, in the same shape as it was before.
- 7
Cook for another 2 and a half to2 hours until the meat is meltingly tender. By this time you'll have a rich onion gravy.
- 8
I served the slices of beef with roast potatoes and peas.

This is one of my favorite recipes that I make every few months.Why only every 3 months? Because you can freeze them! So keep in mind that while this takes a lot of effort, you can make a couple week's worth of dinners in one night of cooking.I write this recipe with the assumption that the cook will make one set for immediate eating, and then freeze the rest. I also used a Dutch Oven and rice cooker (but you could use a slow cooker for the brisket, and a pan with a lid for the rice).

A short initial broil can seal in the juices of tough cuts of meat, if they have a cap of fat, like brisket, it bakes the cap to a delicious crisp crust, followed by a slow oven bake to tenderize the beef inside and keep its juiciness.

Sauteed Beef in Garlic Butter Soy Sauce Sauteed Beef in Garlic Butter Soy Sauce
My husband loved it when I made steak flavored with garlic, butter, and soy sauce, so I started making a before-payday version using inexpensive thinly cut meat.This is great with shimeji mushrooms or spinach. I buy beef when it's on sale, and make this recipe when I don't have time. I used brisket offcuts this time, but I think it's good made with other cuts of beef. It's best to use a cut with some fat. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Takuchi
