Ingredients: 2 lbs beef stew meat, cubed; 2 tbsp vegetable oil; 1 large onion, diced; 3 carrots, peeled and sliced; 3 potatoes, peeled and cubed; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 4 cups beef broth; 1 cup Guinness beer; 2 tbsp tomato paste; 1 tsp sugar; 1 tsp dried thyme; Salt and pepper, to taste; Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef stew meat and brown on all sides for about 5 minutes. Remove the meat from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Return the browned beef stew meat to the pot. Add the sliced carrots and cubed potatoes.
Pour in the beef broth and Guinness beer. Stir in the tomato paste, sugar, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let the stew simmer, covered, for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
After 2 hours, uncover the pot and continue to simmer for an additional 30 minutes to allow the stew to thicken slightly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve the classic Irish stew hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
