This recipe needs further development
We are extremely proud of the fact that unlike many cookery sites, we test all of our published recipes.
The author of this recipe feels that it needs improving before it can be considered complete.
Do feel free to use it for inspiration but be aware that it may not yet be perfect.
This recipe for irish stew (Stobhach Gaelach) is from the 1950s and is about as traditional as I can find. Just meat, potatoes and onion - no barley or other veg. You can cook this either on the hob or in the oven.
Ingredients
Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩🍳 method for this recipe
- 1 kg scrag end of lamb or mutton, cut into cutlets and fat trimmed
- 1.8 kg potatoes, peeled and cut in half or quarters, depending on size
- 500 g brown onions, thickly sliced
- Seasoning
- 570 ml meat stock (hot stock if cooking in the oven)
- A sprig of rosemary
- A few sprigs of thyme
- 2 bay leaves
Mise en place
- If cooking in the oven, pre-heat to 150°C (fan 130°C) / 300° F / Gas 2
Method
- Take a deep saucepan or casserole, depending on how you want to cook it and add a layer of half the potatoes, then the meat, and then the rest of the potatoes, seasoning well between layers.
- Add the remaining ingredients.
- Firstly cover the pan with some greased tin foil, and put the lid on.
For cooking on the hob
- Bring to a gentle boil, reduce the heat and simmer gently for 2-2½ hours. As the pan is so tightly covered, you may find a heat diffuser useful. Also you need to shake the pan at times, to prevent sticking.
For cooking in the oven
- Place the casserole into the pre-heated oven and cook for 2-2½ hours (probably a bit less for fan).
- In either case, the stew should not be too liquidy - it is not soup - and the potatoes will help to thicken it up.
Serving suggestions
Serve with soda bread or other rustic bread
