This is my version of Irish beef stew with the ingredient which I could manage from my local market during this lockdown times. This recipe is not complicate but time consuming.
Lamb is the ideal option for an Irish stew, but as my son wanted something different from the tradition Kerala recipes I cook. So tried this one.
My family loved it. They prefer to have it with homemade pull apart garlic bread.
