I started with a piece of beef ribeye left in the freezer, added whatever vegetables I had around the house, threw in a Guinness beer, and dinner was ready.
The advantage of using ribeye for this recipe is that it cooks very quickly.
Ingredients
300g beef ribeye (or lamb)
2 potatoes
1 carrot
1 handful frozen peas
1 onion
1 garlic clove
1 bay leaf
200 ml Guinness beer
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 level tablespoon flour
2 sprigs tarragon (I used preserved in vinegar)
3 tablespoons oil
salt, pepper
Servings: 3
How to prepare irish beef stew
- Heat the oil and fry the cubed meat until browned. Remove the meat from the pot.
- Add the finely chopped onion and saute until softened. Return the meat to the pot, add the crushed garlic, and fry everything for another minute.
- Cover everything with beer and 1 1/2 cups of water. Season with salt and pepper, and add the bay leaf and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- While the meat is cooking, peel the carrot and potatoes. Cut the carrot into rounds and the potatoes into cubes.
* besides these vegetables, you can also use leek, a few mushrooms, and some thinly sliced cabbage - Add the carrots, potatoes, and peas to the pot and simmer for another 20 minutes over medium-low heat.
- Pour in the flour dissolved in a little cold water and let it simmer for 5 more minutes until the stew thickens.
- At the end, add the chopped tarragon (well drained of vinegar if using preserved).
