Monday: Beef Stew with Pumpkin and Vegetables
This truly autumnal dish gives pumpkin a whole new profile. We like to start with a good chef’s knife to cut up all the ingredients, then simmer the beef gently for two hours and, lastly, add the vegetables. Make this dish a day ahead to give yourself a richer, more savoury stew!
