IRISH STEW IN A BREAD BOWL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Irish Stew ***********
2 lbs. beef 1 onion, finely chopped 2 stalks celery finely chopped 1 bay leaf 2 lg. potatoes, peeled and chopped into chunks 3 lg. carrots, peeled and cut into thick slices 1 - 16 oz. bag frozen peas 2 cans beef broth 2 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce Flour in a plastic bag 2 tbsp. cooking oil Salt and pepper to taste
Cut beef into bite-size cubes. Add beef cubes to flour in bag and shake until cubes are coated with flour.
Heat oil in large pot. Add celery, onion and bay leaf. Saute until onions and celery are translucent but not browned.
Add the beef a little at a time to the pan and brown beef completely. Add beef broth and tomato sauce.
If necessary, add enough water to cover beef (we use Guiness light beer).
Bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmer.
Cover pot and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours until beef is tender.
Add carrots and potatoes. Cook 1/2 hour until vegetables are tender.
Add frozen peas. Cook 5-10 minutes until peas are tender.
BREAD BOWL **********
While stew is cooking, spread bread dough to the edges of an
upside down, 'thoroughly oiled' stainless steel bowl.... I use two ... 1 for Honey & 1 for me.
Brush with beaten egg yolk mixed with a little water.
Bake as directed on bread package.
Serve this delicious stew in this delicious bowl. YUM!
These bread bowls will also hold your 'green'
salad,or dip, chili etc.
We love this meal 'anytime' of the year.
Sue Z Hopes you all have a FUN St. Patty's Day!
