Irish stew πππ One-pot cooking doesnβt get much simpler than Irish stew, traditionally made with mutton, onions and potatoes (the addition of carrots can be a divisive issue). To avoid the stew being watery (a childhood horror for many of us), some recipes recommend adding pearl barley, a spoonful of roux or sliced potatoes, while others reduce the liquid by leaving the stew to simmer. These days, youβre more likely to find Irish stew made with lamb (as the more flavourful mutton is harder to come by), with stock and herbs β such as thyme, parsley and bay leaves β adding depth of flavour. #Ireland
