Irish Stew #2 recipe
information
A simple dish of lamb, potatoes and onions, well flavoured with herbs. If any other ingredients are added, the result is not an authentic Irish stew. Use a deep casserole to hold the layers of meat and vegetables, and allow for long show cooking so that the liquid is thickened and enriched. Use a firm potato such as the Romano or Maris Piper varieties.

700 g (1 1/2 lb) middle neck of lamb, cut into cutlets and trimmed
2 medium onions, skinned and sliced
450 g (1 lb) old potatoes, thinly sliced
15 ml (1 tbsp) chopped fresh parsley
5 ml (1 tsp) dried thyme
salt and pepper
chopped fresh parsley, to garnish
