2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Directions
INGREDIENTS
- 1-2 tbsp of rapeseed oil
- 900g beef round steak, diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, roughly chopped
- 2 celery sticks, roughly chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 150ml beef stock
- 500ml of Guinness
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 tbsp plain flour
- Mash potato, to serve
- Small handful parsley, to serve
- Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
METHOD
- Heat the oil in a large pot over a medium high heat and brown the meat in two batches if required, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Remove and set aside on a plate. Add another drop of oil if you need it and then fry off the onion, carrots and celery. Add the meat back into the pot along with the garlic.
- Pour in the stock, Guinness, bay leaf and season to taste. Turn down the heat and simmer gently for about 1 & a ½ hours until the liquid has reduced. If the sauce isn’t thick enough, spoon a ladleful of the sauce into a small bowl with the flour and mix until you have a smooth paste, then mix this smooth paste through the rest of the liquid in the pot.
- Simmer gently for a further 10 minutes and serve with mashed potatoes and a garnishing of chopped parsley.
