A dish close to our hearts… SCOUSE!
As we are based in Merseyside it’s only fair we share this Liverpudlian dish. A rich slowed cooked stew, with tender lamb or beef and hearty root veg. It’s a real winter warmer and delicious mopped up with crusty bread. Each household has their own version but this is ours…
STEP 1
Toss the meat pieces in flour and season well. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large casserole dish over high heat. Brown the meat on all sides, and remove from the pot.
STEP 2
Turn down the heat to medium and pour in 2 tbsp oil, and fry the onion, carrots and turnips, add a pinch of salt and cook till coloured, around 5-8 mins. Add the fennel seeds and mustard seeds, return the meat to the pot along with stock, thyme and bay leaves.
STEP 3
Bring to the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the potatoes to the stew. Cook for 2 hrs until the meat is tender and the potatoes are soft.
*Serve with pickled cabbage or beetroot, and crusty bread with lashings of butter*
