I love a good stew and usually just make it up as I go! This was really yummy – I added zucchini, celery and peas. I didn’t do the dumplings as my son cannot eat wheat, so served with crusty bread instead. My 2yo went back for a third bowl. Will definitely keep this on the regular list over winter.
A yummy stew. Perfect for a cold winter night.
A lovely stew to have on a cold night 🙂
So good! Easy recipe to follow too!
Oh my goodness, this bought back memories of my childhood. My mum used to make poor man’s stew with dumplings at least once a week and I loved it. Can’t wait to give this one a go for my kids
