Organic Scarily Boo-tiful Beef Stew with Ghostly Potato Pals

Cut all the vegetables into even chunks and finely chop the garlic

Toss the meat in the flour, mustard and a little salt and pepper

Pour half the olive oil into a pan and when hot add meat and fry, stirring until it’s nice and brown. Remove the meat and set aside.

Add remaining oil to the pan with all the vegetables and the garlic and herbs and fry for 5 minutes

Return the meat and add the tomatoes and Knorr stock to the pan

Bring to the boil, then reduce to a slow simmer, cover and cook for 1 ½ hours or until the meat is tender

While the stew is simmering, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Add the potatoes and boil for about 15 mins or until tender. Drain well and return to pan on a very low heat for 2 mins to completely dry

Heat the milk and butter in a small pan, add in the potatoes. Remove pan from heat, then mash potatoes using an electric hand whisk or potato masher.

Serving Suggestion:

When the stew is ready, pipe the potato onto the dish to create the ghostly potato pals. Piping in a steady, round motion will help your pals stand up right and look fantastic.

Using peppercorns, carefully push into the ‘ghost’ to create their ghoulish eyes!
