  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>In Argentina, a carbonada criolla is a beautiful beef stew served in a cooked pumpkin.</p>


	<p>Today, I had no time to fiddle with a pumpkin, and they&#8217;re out of season. So Ye Olde Crock Pot it was. Also, instead of braising the meat in beer, I used some left-over white wine and one can (gasp, I didn&#8217;t make it myself) of beef broth, the low sodium variety.</p>


	<p>When done, it&#8217;s excellent served over brown rice, polenta or potatoes.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[<ol>
	<li>Put the olive oil in the bottom of the crock pot. Turn on the crock pot. Add the meat, onion, spices, wine, broth and tomatoes—-and walk away until it&#8217;s done.
I usually cook on high for 2 hours (if I&#8217;m home) and the lower it for another 3 hours.  Or cook on low for 6-8 hours.</li>
