Method

Season the brisket with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Reduce the heat to medium, add the beef and fry for 3–5 minutes, until browned on all sides, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and adding extra oil, if necessary. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the beef to the slow cooker. Add the beans and potatoes to the cooker.
