     Title: Angie's Irish Stew
Categories: Irish, Stews
     Yield: 6 Servings

     2 tb Rapeseed oil
     1 kg Lamb shoulder; trimmed and
          -cut into 2.5 cm chunks
     2    Onions; peeled and roughly
          -chopped
     3    Celery ribs; trimmed and
          -sliced
     1    Bay leaf
     4 lg Carrots; peeled and roughly
          -chopped
     1 l  Beef or lamb stock
   900 g  Potatoes; peeled and cut
          -into 1 cm slices
          Good knob of butter
          Sea salt and ground black
          -pepper
       sl White bread; to serve

 Cooking time: 2 hours

 Place a large, flameproof casserole pot over a high heat, add 1 tb of
 the oil and brown the lamb pieces in two batches. Remove and set
 aside on a plate. Reduce the heat to medium-high, add another
 tablespoon of oil and fry the onion, celery and carrot for four to
 six minutes, or until the onions have softened.

 Preheat the oven to 160°F / gas 3.

 Return the meat to the pot, along with the bay leaf and stock. Season
 with sea salt and ground black pepper and bring to the boil. Remove
 from the heat and push the slices of potato down into and across the
 top of the stew. Dot with a little butter and give a final seasoning
 of sea salt and ground black pepper.

 Cover the pot and place in the oven to cook for about 1-1/2 hours, or
 until the meat is tender, then remove the lid and cook for a further
 10 minutes, until the potatoes have coloured.

 You can serve the stew straight away or leave it covered overnight in
 the fridge for the flavours to develop. Serve in deep bowls with
 slices of white bread to soak up the liquid.
