- Heat the oil on the slow cooker's sear setting, or in a large frying pan over high heat.
- Add the beef, sprinkle with the salt and pepper, and stir. Sear until lightly browned, about 6-8 minutes. If lots of liquid comes off the beef, spoon it off and add a little more oil.
- Add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until slightly softened.
- Add the garlic, ginger, lemongrass paste, red Thai curry paste, stock, sugar, fish sauce, coconut milk and Thai basil. Stir and cook for 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- If you used a frying pan, transfer everything to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on the slow cooker's programme for 5-6 hours on high or 7-8 hours on low.
- 30 minutes before serving, add the green beans and lime juice, stir, cover and cook for 30 more minutes.
- If you want a thicker sauce, slowly stir in the cornflour and water mixture until it is thick enough.
- Serve over rice with your choice of toppings.
