I cooked this in England for many years before i moved to Thailand. It is still one of my favourite casseroles, even in this hot country. My Thai girlfriend loves it especially with dumplings.

this sounds just great..have been furiously printing out recipes this morning…but i have a vegetarian grandson. any way of changing this a bit to suit him? the beef stock would be ok, just not the meat itself.
i know..not a true vegetarian, but what can i do….thanks !!!!

I’m here in Ireland now from South Africa and it’s cold! Luckily this stew did the trick in warming me up. Okay, we did make a few small changes as my other half is not a prune fan. We swapped the prunes for Carrots (2 large ones) and garlic (3 cloves). We made the dish in the oven and it came out fantastic! I fact it was so good we cooked it twice in a row.
Great recipe thanks!

Kevin: Well, if you like drinking Guinness, you will love this stew. Prunes aren’t everybody’s cup of tea, some use carrots instead. Let me know how it turned out.

I like drinking and cooking with Guinness. The prunes in this stew sound really interesting. I will have to try it to see how they work in a stew.
