OK
- brown off your meat in batches in some of
the olive oil and keep to one side.
Using the same pan, brown the onions and red
pepper then,
on a lower heat the garlic.
Set to one side.
If you're using a slow cooker add all the
ingredients now, plus a glass of water and set to cook for three to
four hours depending on
the meat you use.
You can cook it on top of the stove in a pan
with a lid or in the
oven using a covered casserole dish too.
Cook the meat with all the ingredients except
the olives, capers and parsley for an hour - add the olives, capers and
half the parsley and cook for a further 20 minutes.
If
you are doing this in the oven start it off at 200ºc/400ºf for the
first half hour, then turn it down to 180ºc/360ºf for the rest of the
cooking time... adding the olives, capers and half the parsley 20
minutes before the end.
When it's ready you can serve - garnished with
the rest of the parsley - we like to
serve it with some of our Mediterranean
roast potatoes.
