Ingredients

Directions

  1. Trim excess fat from the beef roast and cut the meat into 3/4-inch cubes.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Brown the beef cubes and chopped onion in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

  5. Add the browned beef and onion mixture to the slow cooker.
  6. Cover and cook on LOW for 9 to 10 hours, or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, until the beef is tender.
  7. Add the drained apricot halves to the cooker.
  8. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes on either setting.
  9. Serve the curried beef over hot cooked rice.
  10. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts before serving.
