SLOW COOKED DUKKAH BOLAR

SERVES 8 | 20 MINS PREP | 4½ HRS COOK TIME

INGREDIENTS

1.5 kg bolar roast

• 1/4 cup dukkah
• 1 cup beef stock, warmed
• 25g butter, softened
• 2 tbsp white flour

METHOD

Preheat the slow cooker for 20 minutes.

Rub the beef with a little oil and the dukkah mix. Place in the preheated slow cooker and pour around the warmed stock. Cover with the lid and cook for 4½ hours on high, or 7½-8½ hours on low.

Make a paste with the butter and flour. 30 minutes before the end of cooking, whisk butter paste into the juices gathered in the slow cooker to make a sauce. Continue cooking.

TO SERVE

Place the beef on a warmed plate and season. Cover loosely with foil and a clean tea towel and leave to rest in a warm place. 

After 20 minutes, slice beef across the grain. Pour the sauce into a warmed jug and serve alongside.

Delicious served with roasted root vegetables (try kumara, parsnip and carrot) topped with crème fraîche and sprinkled with chopped hazelnuts.
