Right now there's one minor thing that I would adjust. I would cover your meat in a flour and spice mixture before frying. It keeps in the moisture of the meat and makes it more tender without getting dried out.
I just made this tonight and it was EXCELLENT! Everything about it was absolutely delicious. Next time I do this I will probably cut out one potato and add in some button mushrooms and increase the celery and carrots. James, you are my new hero and we are loving our Ninja Speedi! Thank you for sharing.
Just bought one and have been looking for some good recipes and came across your channel thank you so much I'm going to buy some meat and vegetables and do this dish it looks so tasty and easy thanks for sharing ❤ from UK 🇬🇧
Small tip for cutting onions finely. Leave the stalk part intact when halving/peeling. Then, with the flat part on the board, make four or five near-vertical cuts from just below the stalk all the way to the base, so that they are angled into core of the onion. Then you can just slice across the onion 'horizontally' from the base up to the stalk part (the direction you did second). And then just discard the very top (the part you'd already cut off here). I find that this is not only much faster, but also a lot safer: there is never the need to slice down on a thin part of onion that's not held together with anything. Hope that made sense. Maybe I'll put up some pictures if anyone wants. (I've also got a tip for prepping peppers I want to share.) Good try at the sauce: "Wu - stuh - shuh". Yes; it really only needs 3 syllables (use Google if you don't believe me!). Pronouncing UK place names really is a law unto itself. 😆 Anyways; great cooking as ever. And another one I really look forward to trying, especially with Winter closing in oh-so-fast.
Wow ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC was just about to do my beef stew the long way around and my partner says can you do it in the ninja speedi. YES you can, really tasty and saved so much time. Thanks a bunch, here in the UK, I luv you speedi videos. Have a good one 👍
I am so glad that I found ur channel..I just won a ninja speeding & I haven't used my stove since..I learned the chicken from you..I love my ninja ❤️❤️
Hi James, great video. I was wondering how you were going to get the slow cooker effect!! I'm going to have to give this one a try. Thanks for sharing.
James, I love your cooking shows. I cook my fried chicken and pork chops the same way you do. Ninjas are my favorite air fryers. And since they came out with the Speedi. It’s been my favorite fryer. I just wanted to let you know that I cook my beef stew in the Ninja Foodi. I sear ans sauté my meat and onions and flour like you. I do use a different broth mixture, but yours is also good. I find cooking my meat for 15 minutes under pressure is quicker for me. Then I let off the pressure and put the veggies in the pressure cooker with meat and gravy. Then cook for an additional 5 minutes. So my total cook time was about 5 minutes to brown meat and gravy. Then 15 minutes to cook meat then 5 minutes for veggies. Just like you a one pot meal. Cooking under pressure helps the beef get tender faster and cooks the veggies very fast. I will continue learning from you how to cook in the Speedi. Ninja outdid themselves with that product. From a super fan
Have had my Ninja Speedi for a week. This recipe is the best stew I have ever cooked. I used venison. It was magnificent. Thank you so much for your easy to follow recipe. Look forward to trying more of your recipes. Today I made chocolate fudge cake. Light as a feather and very moist (not one of your recipes) Best wishes from Scotland.
Looks great! My mom used to use parsnips and turnip in the mix,which I add to mine. My pressure cooker takes about 15 minutes to cook everything,so the Speedi is way slower-sorry! I add some flour at the end to thicken the juices.
Thanks for this really good video. I just got some diced venison & was thinking I could use it instead of the beef in this recipe.... should it work the same do you think? I did think I would be best to use the slow cooker feature on the Ninja Speedi but then saw your video, is there a reason that you didn't use the slow cooker feature? Im assuming it's a question of being a quicker option?
Thanks for adding the audio! Even better the second time around. Definitely trying this one. Wonder if you can make chicken noodle soup with a speedi? cheers 🍻
James, this is a wonderful recipe! I'm making it for the second time today. (I substitute the second 32 oz container of broth for a 28 oz can of diced tomatoes, tasty). I have the same issue as some of the others, it actually takes 25 minutes of dotted lines on my unit before the timer actually starts. That's OK, but I'm wondering if that 25 minutes should be subtracted from the actual steam and bake time. Any thoughts? I appreciate the time, effort and enthusiasm that you put into this channel. If not for you, my Ninja Speedi would just be a very expensive french fry maker. Thank you James.
Recently found your videos on TH-cam & love them. One thing would make them even easier to follow is if you put the recipes on here as well so that it can be followed.
When you go in at half time, instead of more beef broth, try 1/2 14 oz can of diced tomatoes, 1 cup of pearl onions and a cup of dry red wine!!! Nothing like a fantastic bowl of hot homemade beef stew with homemade biscuits to warm you up on a winter's day!!!
You should buy a second crisper tray. It allowes you to add anything using water in the bottom like rice, mac & cheese and then put first crisper tray on top keeping what vegtables out of the liquid while cooking meat on top tray. Ninja is the only place found selling then for $20 + $9.99 shipping
Yes, I bought an extra crisper tray too, for the same reason. It was from Ninja Kitchens and the total with tax and shipping was $31.74, very fast shipping. I ordered on the 18th and it arrived on the 22nd.
I use my 4 quart stovetop pressure cooker for jobs like this. It would beat the pants off the Speedi , speed wise. I find the thing that takes the most time is the prep,and the cook is fast by comparison. Of course,I bought a Speedi,so I will likely try stew in it as well.
I just got one also 3 weeks ago, just love it, how did I live without it 😂 I did meat balls yesterday, put the spaghetti in added the water that the speedi handbook said, then threw in a bottle of tomato and Chilli sauce all together, then put the tray on the top place, and did it on speedi for 15 mins. The meat was ready after 10 mins but the wholemeal spaghetti needed the full 15 mins, so next time I shall wait 5 mins before I put the meat balls on the tray, the meat juices in the sauce it was really good. So easy, rice, roast potatoes, and roast lamb chops, there’s just no end it will cook and it’s so tasty and moist.
Hello James. I've been watching your videos for a while. I appreciate your recipes. I am looking for some help with my decision on my purchase because I'm stumped. My original Ninja Foodi pressure cooker/air fryer is starting to give up on me. I'm trying to decide between the Ninja Foodi pressure cooker with Smart lid or this ninja Foodi Speedi. I am thoroughly aware that the Speedi is not a pressure cooker but I am very impressed with it. It does everything the Ninja Foodi has been doing fast but seems more versatile. Would you suggest the Speedi over the smartlid Ninja? I love all Ninja products and their quality. I hope you can help. Thank you for all your videos, recipes, and reviews. I enjoy them.
Hi James your videos are a life saver . Question when you drop the temp and steam and bake last 45 min my Speedi isn’t counting down yet it’s been 20 min it should have started counting since I dropped the temp . Any advice ? Thank you
It‘s relaxing for me as a german, that a native english Speaker from north america has some problems to pronounce the word „Worchestersauce“ the correct way. 😅
Took much longer as 20 minutes+ at preheat when changing to steam/ bake and again when turning down. Nearly burned dry at that point too. Would have been useful to have temps down in Celsius as well as Fahrenheit instead of having to consult tables.
Hi James! Great recipe! The steam and bake function at the start took so long to preheat or steam before the timer started (been 20 mins and still going) Is this normal?
all sources say that it takes 'a few minites' to preheat. In my first experience it's been 20 min already therefore the 'few minutes / 2-3 minutes' are misleading. Also, obviously it won't be 1h but much longer with the preheating time.
Hi James, We closely followed your method for 'Ninja Speedi Home Cooked Beef Stew'. After the Sear Sautée stage, during the 'Steam Bake ' phase, the cooker didn't cease pre-heating, although steam was emerging from the top. The contents were boiling, but a cooking phase didn't occur. After more than an hour of watching the machine preheat, we removed the ingredients and resorted to finishing the stew in the oven. Our machine, in the UK, shows 'PRE...' whereas yours just had a dotted line. I also noticed yours has no guard over the top heating element. Barring temperature conversion, are the US/CA Speedi 10 in 1models the same, under the hood? If so, we would be grateful for your could help in troubleshooting our failure to successfully recreate your cooking method?
ooh nice I just got mine. I'm going to try chicken barley stew tonight in it. very helpful videos. we say woostersheer sauce in England but I can see why it is difficult as the spelling is just a torment LOL
Been waiting for this ninja speedi to hit ireland for 5 months now lol..finally its here and we have it on order. I got a ninja grill before from looking at your videos and it's been an amazing purchase, we love the food from it.. We also use the ninja oven (pizza lovers) and it makes a €2 frozen pizza seem like €15 one from the takeouts lol.. So next up is the ninja speedi.. thank you for your great content with the ninjas and i am going to binge watch your speedi videos now as ours is on order 👍
@@CookinWithJames omggg this recipe is amazing!! Family loves it! Finally I can make tender beef stew 🥹…doing so on the stove top was such a hit or miss for me. And time consuming. With the ninja Speedi and your technique it was heaven sent Thank you!!!
I live in Canada now and am always schooling them. We have a pub nearby called the Cheshire Cat but they call it Chess-hire which makes me laugh. Don’t get me started on how they pronounce Scarborough or Peterborough 🤣
James I tried your recipe but on steam and bake the bars across just kept flashing. When I called Ninja for help they said that the Speedi would only work on steam and bake if the bottom rack were in. However, you have it on steam and bake wi5hout the rack on the bottom. Any ideas? David Berg
I know you do but Ninja customer care told me I must have the steamer plate in. I checked the users manual and found : skip preheating. Steam & Bake 1 Be sure to place the Crisper Tray in the bottom position. Place the baking accessories on top of the tray. 2 Move SmartSwitch to RAPID COOKER, then use the center arrows to select STEAM & BAKE. The default temperature setting will display. Use the up and down arrows to the left of the display to choose from 250°F to 400°F, in either 10 or 15 degree increments. 3 Use the up and down arrows to the right of the display to adjust the cook time from 1 minute to 1 hour and 15 minutes, in 1 minute increments in 1 minute increments up to 1 hour. 4 Press START/STOP to begin cooking. 5 The display will show progress bars indicating the unit is building steam. Could it be you have a different model than I have?
Try this. Take roaster rack. Just use pan. Fill with 4 cups of water. Turn on steam bake at 350 for 20 minutes. It should start counting down after about 20 minutes
Could you please compare to how long it would take to cook this in the ninja foodi on pressure cook? Because im confused as to which one is best for stews? Why didnt they includeca pressure cooker in the ninja foodi???? I pressure cook the beef for 15min and add potatoes for 5 more.... all in all a i think it takes me about 25min in the pressure cooker
I made the beef stew and with the lid closed steam was coming out of the top of the lid through the vent. It was very very strong and extremely heavy. Is this normal? The steam was so heavy and strong through the top of the vent on the lid. Is that because there was so much liquid or broth in the stew.
Another comment. You didn't season your meat before you fried it. To me that's a big no., no. And why did you turn your cooker off? And then put it on a different setting. Why didn't you just leave it on? Because it takes forever for it to come up to steam and cook. And it would have been half the time if you had just left it heated and then flipped it to steam and cook. Also, why would you cook your meat for 1hr 15 minutes
I used this video to cook some stew with v8 juice 46 oz and beef broth of 14 oz and did all the same timings on this video. It burned all the liquid out of the stew. I'm very upset and don't know what I did wrong.
@CookinWithJames I should have known something was happening because it was just putting out way too much steam. I know when I used tomato base in my pressure cooker it would burn the bottom every time. I'm going to have to find recipes and follow them to a T for awhile instead of branching out right away. Thank you for your video, though, and your quick response.
@@CookinWithJames I think I am going to get all of the ingredients in your recipe and make it to a T. Otherwise, I'm going to end up with a fear of using this machine. I'll report back what happens.
Good beginners tutorial… use spray when browning meat. A lot of oil will steam it because it releases juices. Minimal oil for nice browning. Another thing is please don’t use the fork.. when you scratch it you can throw it away because when it starts flaking you will be eating metal too.
Right now there's one minor thing that I would adjust. I would cover your meat in a flour and spice mixture before frying. It keeps in the moisture of the meat and makes it more tender without getting dried out.
I just made this tonight and it was EXCELLENT! Everything about it was absolutely delicious.

Looks good! Thanks. 😀 FYI - Please, do not use metal utensils, especially forks. You can scratch the finish.
that's what I thought - it's like a nonstick coating, right?
I saw the fork and I cringed. 😬
Looks really good! I'd flour the beef and cook it in butter and also add a can of Mexicorn. Really adds flavor but this looks darned amazing!
That sounds good!

Does it take 20 minutes to pre heat when you change it to steam and bake and then add 30 more minutes?
You put it for how many minutes you want. Then when you turn it on it preheats for about 20 minutes then starts counting down the time.
I’m going to make this tonight but I’m going to do ground beef. It’s what I have on hand.
You're gonna love it. If you want more broth. Add more broth. So good

It can

Not sure. I have plenty of videos using steam and bake without bottom rack. No one else seems to have that problem

Some. Not a lot
Could you please compare to how long it would take to cook this in the ninja foodi on pressure cook? Because im confused as to which one is best for stews? Why didnt they includeca pressure cooker in the ninja foodi???? I pressure cook the beef for 15min and add potatoes for 5 more.... all in all a i think it takes me about 25min in the pressure cooker
Ya. I'm not sure why they didn't add pressure cooking
Definitely quicker in pressure cooker. So much less faff.
I made the beef stew and with the lid closed steam was coming out of the top of the lid through the vent. It was very very strong and extremely heavy. Is this normal? The steam was so heavy and strong through the top of the vent on the lid. Is that because there was so much liquid or broth in the stew.
Yes that's normal. It's steaming. How did the stew turn out
Another comment. You didn't season your meat before you fried it. To me that's a big no., no. And why did you turn your cooker off? And then put it on a different setting. Why didn't you just leave it on? Because it takes forever for it to come up to steam and cook. And it would have been half the time if you had just left it heated and then flipped it to steam and cook. Also, why would you cook your meat for 1hr 15 minutes
We pronounce Worcestershire sauce as WOOSTER. Just bought myself a Ninja Speedi and love your videos.🇬🇧🇬🇧👏👏
Awesome thanks for watching
"Woos - ter" sauce. As per the UK. Or "Woos - ter - shire" sauce, if you're in the mood 😁
Great video, BTW. Thank you.
James can you add more beef stock to the Stew
Absolutely. As much as can fit
Looks great but I would want the broth thicker.
Add more flour
Can I use cubed pork bits instead?
Absolutely
Can you grill on the ninja speedi
Ooh great stew but vegetable oil is a huge No no. I Use lard or goose fat
JAMES - so sorry , but, could have left the temperature at 325 until all the vegetables and meat were completely cooked. this reall helps me .
Say it the way us Brits do...Wuster Sauce 👏
Making it now,so yummy
It's so good. Let me know what you think
Omg it was wonderful
Awesome thanks for sharing!
Gosh the browning of the meat and onions can be done in a skillet
Uh ya… just showing what you can do with this cooker. Thanks so much for watching
There is no need to turn it off to change settings.
This is one of the best meals I ever made.
Brit pronunciation? Wus-ter-sher sauce.
Thanks!
Thank you ❤😄
You're welcome!
Thank you 🙂
You're welcome
I had no clue Campbells had stew.
Wooster sauce or as Emeril calls it, What'sthishere sauce. lol
Lol
I think I would add some carrots and perhaps celery to this as it cooked. Just beef alone is not a real beet stew to me.
You obviously didn't watch it. I did put carrots and celery in it
I used this video to cook some stew with v8 juice 46 oz and beef broth of 14 oz and did all the same timings on this video.
It burned all the liquid out of the stew. I'm very upset and don't know what I did wrong.
I’m not sure. Did u check it half way through to see if u needed more broth. Because v8 can burn. I would say more broth probably
@CookinWithJames I should have known something was happening because it was just putting out way too much steam. I know when I used tomato base in my pressure cooker it would burn the bottom every time. I'm going to have to find recipes and follow them to a T for awhile instead of branching out right away. Thank you for your video, though, and your quick response.
@@CookinWithJames I think I am going to get all of the ingredients in your recipe and make it to a T. Otherwise, I'm going to end up with a fear of using this machine. I'll report back what happens.
Look at the other recipes as well on my channel. Cooking should be fun. This cooker is easy
You got it 👍
WOOSTERSHER! Trust me, I'm English!!
Got it
@@CookinWithJames We often just say Wooster over here.
That's easier. Lol
It looks like too much broth. I would add only 1/2 of broth at the end. I also like to add a large beef gravy jar.
Sounds good 👍
Good beginners tutorial… use spray when browning meat. A lot of oil will steam it because it releases juices. Minimal oil for nice browning.
Another thing is please don’t use the fork.. when you scratch it you can throw it away because when it starts flaking you will be eating metal too.

It’s pronounced “ wuster sauce “ . It may be the same language but as anyone from Texas will tell you, anyone from New York tarks strange. 😉
Lol
I live a few miles away from Worcester, wuster is as close as you'll get 🤓
Love your pronunciation of Worcestershire. In the UK it is pronounced WOOSTER. Enjoyed your video. 🖕🇬🇧
Thanks so much
Just call it Lea and Perrins ! It’s easier than the W word!
Lol
Most people just say Worcester sauce
20 mins in a pressure cooker- much faster.
In UK Worcestershire sauce is actually pronounced WOSTER sauce, you don’t sound every letter.
i can do the same stew in the foodi in less time take 45 mins cooking time this seems a lot slower on cooking time speedi ment to be fast
Good for u
I ran across a chicken noodle recipe
