This is a favourite recipe for feeding guests, ideal for pleasing even the most particular of relatives. The braising steak is coated in seasoned flour and browned before being simmered slowly with onions, carrots and Guinness stout. The result is tender meat in a thick, flavourful gravy. It is traditionally accompanied by mashed or boiled potatoes, and pickled beets make a wonderful optional side. The entire process takes just over an hour and a half of cooking time.

Method

Combine the flour with salt and pepper in a shallow dish.
Dredge the cubed beef in the seasoned flour until fully coated.
Warm the oil in a saucepan and cook the meat and sliced onions for about 4 or 5 minutes until they take on a light brown colour.
