Mince Beef Stew

• 2 kg minced beef
• 2 large onions
• 6 large carrots
• 2 medium swedes
• 2 (400 g) cans baked beans
• 3 tablespoons tomato puree
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 4 beef bouillon cubes
• 2 bay leaves
• water
• salt & pepper

1. With a food processor with the grater attachment, grate the carrots, swede and onions.
2. Put everything except the bay leaves and water into a large pan and heat, stirring, until the meat is browned.
3. Add a teaspoon of salt, a sprinkle of black pepper, the bay leaves and enough water to stop it sticking to the pan (depends on how much water is in the beef).
4. Simmer for 45 minutes, checking occasionally that it is not sticking, and topping up with water if necessary.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning as required.
