Cooking for Yom Tov, even in large quantities, (even in a year and place when Yom Tov runs into Shabbos), does not need to be super time consuming. Cooking in two or three slow cookers, for example, produces multiple soups, meats, chickens, and even meatballs, matzah balls, and applesauce, etc. It’s almost like having a robot!

 

 

Without the special dietary details necessary to make Pesach, Yom Tov may be made using my book’s recipes and just adding challah, salads, and a jacket (to take it out to the sukkah)!

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 large potatoes, peeled and chunked

  • 2 carrots, peeled and chunked

  • 1 sweet potato, peeled and chunked

  • 1 package lean beef stew (about 1 and 1/4 pounds)

  • 2 tablespoons Bartenura Olive Oil

  • 2 tablespoons ketchup

  • 1-2 tablespoons Gefen Honey

  • 2 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 3 shakes black pepper

  • onion powder (be generous)

  • 1/2 cup Tuscanini Marinara Sauce

  • 2-3 cups water

  • 3/4 – 1 cup raw old fashioned oats (if you don’t have them, don’t buy them! Use any starch – barley, pancake mix, etc.!)

Directions

Prepare the Stew

1.

Use a slow cooker liner to line the pot. 

2.

I cooked it on high for four hours without any water or sauce (only the ketchup and olive oil). Then add everything else and leave on low three hours.

Notes:

If you want to “sleep” on this one, dump it all together and cook on low for seven to eight hours, only adding the oats in the morning, leaving it to cook one more hour. Orzo or Israeli couscous works, too, or anything else you are trying to use up!

Tuscanini marinara sauce I live in Israel. Can you suggest a substitution for this sauce?
Also: Since I am new to your site, how do I access a recipe after it has been saved?

HI Susan.
All your saved recipes should be in your recipe box under your name in the top right hand corner. Thought it won’t taste as good, marinara sauce should suffice as a substitute.
