Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound beef stew meat
  • 4 large carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds
  • 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons ras el hanout
  • 1 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped, for serving

Instructions
 

  • Place the beef stew meat in the bottom of the crockpot.
  • Add the sliced carrots, drained chickpeas, cauliflower florets, diced onion, and minced garlic on top of the beef.
  • Sprinkle the ras el hanout over the ingredients, then pour in the diced tomatoes and beef broth.
  • Season with salt and black pepper, then stir gently to combine everything.
  • Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours until the beef is tender and the vegetables are soft.
  • Ladle the stew into bowls and top with chopped cilantro before serving.

Notes

If the broth seems thin at the end, mash a few chickpeas against the side of the pot to thicken it naturally. Ras el hanout works best here, but a quick mix of cumin, cinnamon, and paprika can stand in if needed. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for three days and reheat smoothly on the stovetop with a splash of broth.
