  Really tasty, served it with the stuff baked potatoes and peas/carrots from the magazine, which went really well. A good winter warmer, would make again.

  Very tasty, made this twice in the slow cooker along with the Jackets stuffed with Leeks and Boursin and the Thyme glazed carrots and peas. Good old winter comfort food

  If you're going out, leave this on a timer or in a slow cooker, and it's the perfect meal to come home to on a cold night.

  Absolutely lovely dish, just make sure the stock is really flavoursome to add depth to the dish. I used a powdered stock which qasn't intense enough

  Lovely dish. A real winner. Left for hours and tasted even better. Served with roasted carrots with honey and garden peas - delish!

  Did reduce the portion size because the mountain of onions looked daunting and the size of the beef might have been too much because I wanted to serve it with butternut squash, carrots and mashed potato. All in all was delicious and easy to make. I am quite a beginner and the youngest in the family but I did them proud! Couldn't find braised beef shins which was a shame but steaks worked well. Was lovely and tender! And the sauce/gravy was rich and full of flavour!

  Cooked this in the slow cooker but found the end result disappointing. Needed to thicken the gravy and didn't think the flavour was up to much despite having good ingredients.

  Didn't like the this much at all, was really disappointed because it sounds amazing. The flavour just wasn't there for me, maybe I did something wrong

  This was ok, but not that special really. Nice and easy to do and decent flavours but there are better recipes on here so I probably won't bother again.
