There's nothing better on a cold winter's night than a hearty, full of flavour casserole. Melt in your mouth beef is given a kick with smoky paprika and oregano.
If you want to prepare this quickly, then pressure cook it for 30 minutes - the results are the same as the slow cook method. Don't fuss about browning everything separately - it takes valuable time away from your family!
