This is REALLY good! Add some potatoes and double it! ;D
Irish Beef & Guinness Stew
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 bay leaves
2 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1 1/2 -- with some fat left on the meat
1 large yellow onions, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch pcs
2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup beef stock -- or use canned (1 cup)
1/2 cup Guinness stout (3/4 cup)
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
1/2 pound carrots, sliced
salt and black pepper, freshly ground
Directions:
Heat a 6 quart stove top casserole or oven proof pot and add the oil and the bay leaves.
Cook the bay leaves for a moment and then add the meat. Brown the meat on both sides on high heat.
Add the onion and cook for a few minutes until it is clear. Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic, thyme, rosemary and flour and stir until smooth.
Add the beef stock and stout; simmer, stirring until the stew thickens a bit. Add the remaining ingredients and cover.
Place the pot in the oven at 275F for about 2 hours, stirring a couple of times.
Check for the salt and pepper before serving.
