Tonight I made a great stew with some lovely garden veg; i'm so proud of myself 
Ingrediants:
2 large leeks, chopped
1 large onion, sliced
3 shallotts, sliced
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small heart celery with leaves
15 medium sized mushrooms, quartered
2 chilli peppers, deseeded and chopped
olive oil, to fry off above all at once in pan for 5 min.
add one small package stew beef, fry off another 5 mins- just to sear the meat.
add in:
4 large carrots, chopped
3 large parsnips, chopped
4 tablespoons tomato puree
1 whole bottle of red wine
2 cups beef stock
1 small satsuma; squeeze the juice into pot.
Salt/Fresh Pepper/seasonings to taste
1 large sprig rosemary
2 bay leaves
cook on low heat in oven for 3 hours at 125, stir every hour. At beginning of last hour add:
2 tablespoons light brown sugar- if the wine taste is to strong for you
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
4 teaspoons bisto beef gravy granules; i like a thicker gravy
stir in and let cook for last hour, eat with garlic bread or dumplings and enjoy
