Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 lb Round steak -- or stew
Steak
3 md Carrots
3 md Parsnips
1/2 c Barley, pearled
8 Potatoes
Stock or soup mixture (beef
Or oxtail)
Salt
Pepper
Mixed herbs

Boil some water in a large saucepan, sufficient to
cover the meat and have approx 1" left above. Put
in the chopped (large chunks) meat, lower heat to
keep the stew simmering, put in the chopped/diced
carrots and parsnips, add herbs, salt and pepper to
taste, leave simmer for a while (say 20 mins). Add the
peeled whole potatoes and some stock/soup mixture
or cornflour to thicken, keep the mixture simmering
and stir occasionally, after about 1hr from
start-time taste and check the potatoes. If it
tastes ok then its done. Remember the best stews are
left on for a long time 1 1/2 hrs or more. Contributed
