Ardshane House Irish Stew Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
4 lb middle neck of lamb, cut in
1 one inch chunks
4 lb potatoes, peeled
10 small onions, sliced
2 oz pearl barley
2 pt beef stock
1 salt and pepper to taste
Recipe Preparation
"That's the basic recipe. You can add a load of sliced carrots and
leeks to make it go further and about 5-6 tsps. of Worchestershire
sauce or regular brown sauce wot you Yanks pour over everything!! If
you like, you could add a half a pint of Guinness to your stock. I
make my stock from the potato peelings, carrot tops, leek ends, and
any other stuff I find lurking in the refrigerator. If you chuck in a
few moldy lamb bones and boil/simmer for several hours, you should
get a damned good stock (strain the liquid or you'll get God knows
what stuck in your teeth!!) You'll need to start with about 5 pints
of liquid. Then bung everything into a ginormous pan, bring to the
boil, and then simmer for about two hours...should taste bloody
orgasmic! Salt and pepper to taste, depending on your level of
drunkeness!!"
Servings: 6

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weightIf you enjoy your food, but want to become thin and also improve your overall physical condition, then, as most people know, you should follow a meticulously prepared wholesome dietary regime. Theoretically, this needs to involve 5 standard portions of grains, cereals and vegetables every day and also contain the optimum fusion of important nutrients.
Some lower carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Eat regular meals Most low carb recipes are, you won't be surpised to learn, low in carbohydrates. Your body needs energy, and carbs are a highly efficient source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires more care in monitoring you energy intake, as the energy provided by fat or protein is less efficient.
* Food labels can be misleading Watch out for food packaging that boasts to be 'low carb' - check the nutritional information on the back of the package. Many are only a little decreased and in some instances still greater than a competitors usual brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are the same.
