Chef's tip
Garnish with parsley and serve with boiled carrots
Variations
This time I used some wonderful dried girolle mushrooms that I bought in France. A little of the water used to re hydrate the mushrooms made good stock too. Add dried mushrooms with the meat, even if they have been presoaked.
Use a medium onion, peeled and sliced if you don't have baby onions.
Omit the mustard, replace the Guinness with dry cider, the beef stock with chicken stock and make this dish with meaty lamb chops
Serving suggestions
Blanche the onions in boiling water for 5 minutes to ease the peeling of the white onions
