Somerset Cider Stew image

This is a really tasty meal that's not difficult to do & that should fulfil most appetites. I found the recipe in a magazine, many years ago & even though it's been cooked many times, we still enjoy the dish today. A NOTE TO EVERYONE WHO HAS PINCHED THIS RECIPE PRIOR TO 3rd APRIL. My sincere apologies to you all for adding...
