Steps to make Rich beef stew with dumplings:
- Chop the bacon into approx 2cm squares, the garlic resaonably coarsely and slice the onion.
- Fry the bacon in a large pan in some olive oil until it begins to brown.
- Add the onions and fry until translucent stirring all the time.
- In a very hot heavy bottomed frying pan or dutch oven sear the beef in batches.
- Add the beef and the garlic to the pan and stir thoroughly.
- Pour in the stout, bring to a simmer and turn the heat low.
- Add the broken up mushrooms,
- The carrots
- And the potatoes, top up with some water or beef stock, stir and bring back to a simmer. Add a stock pot if you don't use fresh beef stock.
- Add the bay leaves and a few sprigs of thyme, stir and simmer on a very low heat for 30 minutes. I tend to vary the herbs in this recipe. I find any combination of fresh thyme, sage, rosemary and oregano works.
- While the stew is simmering, make the dumplings. Mix the flour, the suet, some fresh thyme leaves and about 1/2 a tsp of salt together.
- Add water a little at a time stirring all the time until you have a soft dough mix.
- After simmering for 30 minutes, add the cream a little at a time stirring it in between each pour. Taste the stew at this stage and if needed add some salt. Add the pepper. You can get a more traditional stew by leaving out the cream.
- With a table or desert spoon, spoon in the dumpling mixture. Cover and simmer gently for another 30 minutes or until the dumplings are cooked throughout.
Put the flour in a large mixing bowl and season. Toss a third of the beef in flour to coat, shaking off excess. Spoon out portions of the dough about the size of a ping pong ball, roll them with your hands, and place on a cookie sheet. Put them in the fridge to chill while the stew cooks. In this recipe, finely chopped parsley is added to scone-like dumplings to dot on top of a vegetable-rich beef stew.
