3. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until beef if fork tender. Remove and discard the bay leaves.

4. Using the remaining flour (2 Tbsp) and 1/4 cup beef stock, stir together in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth. Stir the flour mixture and frozen peas in to the cooker. Increase the heat to HIGH. Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until the mixture boils and thickens.
