Instructions to make Slow Cooker Beef Pie Filling:

- put the lid on and leave for 4 hours
- once the meat is tender and falls apart turn off the heat. using a holed spoon remove the meat. either transfer the juices to a pan and simmer until reduced. or as I like to do to make the juices richer sprinkle 2tbsp of beef gravy granules and mix in.
- layer a pie dish with pastry then the meat. pour the juices (now gravy) over the top and top with more pastry. baste the lid with milk, melted butter or beaten egg. poke a couple of holes in the top and bake until pastry is golden brown
- skip out the pastry and just enjoy as a rich hearty stew
Add the rest of the pie filling ingredients. Melt the stock cubes in the hot water and pour over the meat and vegetables in the slow cooker, then add the tomato paste and sugar and stir through.
