Notes
- You can peel your potatoes if you want, but I leave the skin on.
- Ensure the beef is well-seared on all sides to develop the best flavor.
- Try replacing the beef with lamb for a more traditional Irish stew recipe.
- Use homemade beef stock or broth if possible.
- Don't rush sautéing the vegetables. Let them sweat out nice and slow to develop their natural sweetness and depth of flavor.
- Allow the stew to cook nice and slow over a low simmer. Don't let it boil.
