TRADITIONAL IRISH GUINNESS STEW
A lovely, heart warming food - perfect for those cold, rainy winter days. My grandmother used to, and still does make this one for me when I go over to Ireland to see her. She's 81. It's easy to make and certainly makes a change to regular stew. PS: To those of you worried about alcohol, there is no alcohol left in this recipe once it is cooked - alcohol evaporates more quickly than water, thus this recipe is non-alcoholic.

Steps:
- In a large glass bowl, combine Guinness, mustard, rosemary, and bay leaves.
- Add the beef cubes, stir in, cover, leave to marinate in the fridge overnight.
- Preheat oven to 325°F or 160°C.
- Drain the meat and keep the marinate to one side for later.
- On a plate or chopping board, sprinkle the flour and season to your tastes. I recommend just a bit of salt and pepper and a touch of rosemary.
- Cover the beef cubes in the flour and set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt butter and brown the meat 3-5 minutes each side. Transfer this to a casserole dish and do not clean the skillet (this retains flavours released by the beef).
- Add the remaining butter to the skillet, when foamy add the onions and cook until brown and/or tender. Add these to the casserole dish.
- Repeat this step for all other vegetables, only adding butter when necessary. Each vegetable should be cooked until tender. This will take a maximum of 5 minutes.
- Add the vegetables to the casserole dish followed by the marinate and beef stock.
- Cook for 1.5-2 hours or until meat is tender. Stir occasionally. The Guinness will reduce a lot, but if it looks too dehydrated you can add more.
- Taste occasionally, and if it is too sharp you can add sugar to cut the taste.
