Low carb Meat Stew

This is basically a beef and potato stew with kangaroo and swede as low carb substitutes. I used one of those kangaroo roasts (which was annoying because it had all those cords holding it together in to a roast shape. What a pity) with the beef stock and fried onions, and stuck it all in a slow cooker for 8 hours. The result was just as filling as the beef and potato counterpart at a fraction of the calories. Gram for gram, swede is almost half the calories of potato and tastes almost the same, especially when both potato and swede are already so heavily flavoured with the meat of the stew. Kangaroo is also one of the most lean meats available. It is as lean as chicken breast and a million times more flavoursome.
