How to Make Asian Beef Vegetable Casserole

Preheat oven to 180°C (350-375°F/Gas Mark 4-5).
Place 1/2 cup all-purpose flour on a plate. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add 1.5kg (3lbs) beef stew meat and toss to coat evenly.
Shake off any excess flour.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a 4L ovenproof casserole dish over medium heat.
Add half of the beef to the dish and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned. Transfer cooked beef to a plate.
Repeat with remaining oil and beef, reheating the dish between batches.
Add 1 large onion (chopped) and 2 carrots (chopped) to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until onion softens.
Add 3 star anise, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 2 stalks lemongrass (finely chopped). Stir to combine.
Return the beef to the dish. Add 500ml (16 fl oz) beef stock, 2 tablespoons brandy, and 2 tablespoons tomato paste.
Cover and bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
Meanwhile, cook 250g (9 oz) green beans in a saucepan of boiling water for 3-4 minutes, until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain.
Add the green beans to the beef mixture and stir to combine.
Garnish with 1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander. Serve hot with steamed rice.
