HARICOT OF BEEF
This is a savoury, traditional English stew from an early Victorian recipe book. I highly recommend keeping it until next day and reheating it, because the stew will be much more tender and have an even better flavour.

Steps:
- Fry the meat in a heavy flameproof casserole dish with the butter and oil until lightly browned.
- Skin the onions by first dipping them for 1 minute in boiling water and then boiling them in 10 oz.
- salted water until they are almost tender.
- Strain, keeping the liquid, and put the onions on one side.
- Sprinkle the flour into the casserole with the meat and let it brown.
- Add the cooking liquid from the onions.
- Season with salt and cayenne pepper, bury a tied bunch of herbs in the center of the meat and bring to the boil again.
- Cover the pan and simmer for 1½ hours, periodically adding a dash of stock if more liquid is needed.
- Prepare the carrots, either, if they are large, by cutting them in half lengthways and then cutting them in small pieces, or, if they are small, simply by scrubbing them.
- Put them in the stew, add the onions and the Worcestershire sauce, stir it in and simmer for a further 30 minutes, until the meat and carrots are both tender.
- Serve if you like with a sprinkling of parsley, chopped shallot and the chopped yolk of a hard-boiled egg, all sprinkled very lightly with a dash of vinegar.
- This stew needs good mashed potatoes or baked potatoes to mop up the gravy.
