Sounds very tasty, anne. :)
Since my son spent a weekend in Dublin recently, he's been asking for a recipe for steak & ale casserole, which I didn't have, but this should just fit the bill.
I'll try it out next time he comes to visit, and if he likes it, and he's a very good boy, he might just be allowed to take the recipe away with him! ;)
Anne x,
that sounds very tasty, but a wee question, the average bottle of Guiness is 500mls approx 18 fluid ounces. Where do the other 13 fluid ounces go? Or is that a perk for the chef? :eek:
Trust you !!! Yeh Mr x gets the leftovers here enjoy !!!

A nice variation to Anne's recipe is to remove casserole with 15 mins left to go then add rounds of French baton spread on one side with Dijon mustard then lightly pressed mustard side DOWN over the top and baste with any reserved fat from the beef, return to oven for final 15/20mins without a lid to allow crisping up.
I add carrots to mine and use dark Isle beer in place of the Guinness.
Super Comforting and you don't need to serve potatoes with it!:)
karia

I like to fry some strips of beef with a couple of chillis,onions and Mushrooms. after a long simmer I then thicken with Gravy granules and add a tsp of Garam Masala. Its basically a stew with a "bit of a kick".

Annex, thanks for the reminder and glad you liked the added mushrooms. I use guinness, but often use ale which is also nice.

I like the sound of this and would like to give it a try.
I have only ever had Goulash in Maastricht about fifteen years ago, and it was delicious.
The outside catering vans where you can get a meal at night served it with chips and mayonnaise and I have never found anything that could equal it for a tasty feed that hit the spot.:Razz
Em I have a recipe of sorts.
I like to boil a ham hough and do a bean stew with it. It's really flavoursome and healthy too.
Tin of tomatoes. tins of beans of some sort, carrots, onions mushrooms etc.
I simmer the ham for a good couple of hours and use the stock to make the casserole, then pull the ham off the bone and add it at the last minute.
I also add whatever herbs I have and cumin and corriander seeds and a bit of paprika.
Sorry it's not a proper recipe.
