Beef & Barley Stew

 This delicious Beef & Barley Soup can be prepared with no sweat using slow cooker - just dump everything in it, no frequent check necessary and ready by the set time! That's what I did for hubby's BBQ last week when energy level is low (sorry if anyone been waiting this long for the recipe).

When I made it, I simply threw whatever crossed my mind with instinct without any specific recipe. Now a week later, I hope I can recall it correctly.... Bottom line is, use your creativity for this sort of meal!

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION

Resepi ni dah lapuk seminggu tapi baru hari ni dapat nak update blog - ingat tak Along ada pos pasal menu BBQ untuk birthday hubby. Maaf ler kalau2 ada yg menunggu lama ya. Along buat ni guna slow cooker, senang tak payah nak mengadap dapur lama2 tapi kena rancang awal2 lah. Kalau takda slow cooker, boleh masak macam dalam periuk biasa tapi akan mengambil masa yg lebih pendek & kena hadap takut meruap atau air terkering.
