Irish Stew Recipe
 

I found a fantastic recipe for Irish stew at www.recipemate.info which
they sent me in their newsletter. I hope they won't mind me sharing it
here :D

1 pound lean mutton pieces
1 pound carrots
1 pound onions
1 pound potatoes
salt & pepper
1 pinch thyme

Place mutton with thyme in sauce pan and add cold water to cover.
Bring
slowly to the boil and simmer for one hour. Add onions, potatoes,
carrots, and peeled and roughly copped. Season. Continue cooking until
vegetables are tender. Adjust seasoning. May be served alone or with
cooked green cabbage or sprouts.

Wow, that is such a fantastic recipe we should just abandon rfc and
spend all our time on your site!

That pinch of thyme must be the secret, huh? How creative!

And the procedure is so simple! No need for that pesky browning of
the meat first. Those who yammer about additional flavor just don't
appreciate how well boiling cooks meat. Nor any need to fuss over how
thick you want the liquid. Just take it as it comes after perfectly
boiling the veggies. The only way I can imagine to improve this would
be to add some dried onion soup mix and cook the whole thing in
crockpot for 10 or 12 hours...... -aem

Sorry to disillusion you and you irreplaceable sarcasm but the
traditional (for only about 200 years) recipe for Irish Stew
does indeed use unbrowned lamb boiled just about exactly
as the above recipe describes. If you want something else
you might look elsewhere.

Yeah, I know you're right about that. About the only subtlety to
traditional Irish stew is that you can stage potatoes so that some
cook away to thicken the broth and others are added later to cook but
not fall apart. It's just that these lying posts that pretend to have
just found some damn site **** me off. If they would just say, please
come to my site and click on any ads you see so I can make a few
nickels, I'd have no problem with them. -aem

Right, point made. I thought you were after the message,
not the messenger. Cheers.
