EASE OF PREPARATION

Many of our readers comment about the simplicity of this recipe. In essence, it’s about preparing a few vegetables and placing them in a pot with corned beef. So, what’s all the fuss about?

Certainly, part of the beauty of this recipe is the flavourful stock and spices. After a slow cooking, everything conspires to create a very delicious complete meal. We like that!

Juicy, sliced corned beef

CORNED BEEF

There’s only one way of cooking corned beef to ensure it stays juicy and tender. It needs to be cooked slowly, on a low heat. Cooking it any other way will result in dry, tough meat and no one enjoys that. In a way, slow cookers were practically made for corned beef.

VEGETABLES

You can prepare this meal using vegetables most often associated with a boiled dinner: carrots, potatoes and cabbage. If you’d like to experiment and add other vegetables, go ahead. Try the recipe with parsnip, leek, turnip and rutabaga, you won’t be disappointed.

COOK TIME AND BROTH

This dinner is prepared in a slow cooker set on low for seven hours. Thankfully, we can set up the slower cooker to “work its magic” while we’re out for the day. Always a pleasure coming home and getting that first whiff of a corned beef dinner, you just know something delicious awaits. This all-day slow and steady cook time is worth the wait!

The combination of stock, apple juice and water add a pleasing flavour profile. Please note, the apple juice does give the broth a bit of sweetness. Leave it out if it’s not your thing.

FINISHING TOUCHES

The final steps of this recipe need not be complicated, and I’ve purposefully kept them quite simple. The potatoes and carrots get sliced before being tossed with butter, cilantro, salt and pepper. The cabbage can be served as-is. One suggestion: slice the corned beef right before you serve to keep it juicy.

Assorted mustards

CONDIMENTS

Perhaps I’m a creature of habit, but I always serve this meal with my favourite condiments. This meal welcomes a favourite mustard or for a really luxurious treat, try it wit our HOLLANDAISE HACK. If you have a jar of our famous BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLES at the ready, now’s the perfect time to crack it open too!

Whenever I’ve got a taste for something fabulous, I prepare this SLOW COOKER CORNED BEEF DINNER. Who’s ready to enjoy?
