Notes
- You don't have to sear the meat first, however it really does make a difference to the finished dish as it seals all the flavour in.
- Root vegetables work really well in this stew, however you can give it a green boost by adding some leafy greens about 30 minutes before the stew is ready.
- You don't have to serve this stew with anything. You could add some potatoes to the stew and cook it all together.
- Thicken the dish by adding a cornflour slurry
