Irish Lamb Stew image

Guinness stout beer gives richness and depth to this lamb stew without any hint of beer flavor, but you could use any dark beer. Irish stew is traditionally made with lamb, but you may substitute beef if you must. The onions, peas, and mushrooms add flavor, but you may wish to add some garlic for extra punch. Makes a hearty and filling meal for St. Patrick's Day or any day. If you have any questions e-mail me: [email protected]
