I’m always looking for meal that I can make in bulk. Every other Sunday, the family gathers at my grandad’s house and we all squash in around the table in his kitchen. The kids have their own mini table - all set with a tablecloth and food garnishings (like the adult table), and we probably make enough noise to make his neighbours dread Sundays! Tea at grandad’s has been a thing since I was a little girl. My grandad used to make a big buffet with piles of buttered bread, meat, pork pies plus homemade fruitcake and scones. It’s not quite as easy nowadays for him to cook for so many people, so we take turns, bringing food for everyone to share.
I live about 90 minutes drive away, so I find it easier to make something at home, then heat it up when I arrive. This means stews and casseroles are a definite favourite. Chinese beef was my latest meal - served up with piles of fluffy white rice, chopped up spring onions, chilli flakes and some freshly chopped chillies for those that like a bit of heat.
We all love this one - my grandad and the kids without the chillies, and everyone else with the chillies. I served it with some green veg - stir-fried broccoli and bok choy for a bit of added crunch too. Two kgs of beef cooked over the course of three hours, gone in 10 minutes flat! If you like this recipe then why not try some of my other big batch or Asian recipes.
