How to Cook Beef & Beer Stew with Herb Suet Dumplings 😋

In this video I demonstrate how to cook my boozy beef stew, cooked with Newcastle Brown Ale and topped with pillowy herb suet dumplings. This beef n beer stew is a great winter warmer and a much-needed dose of comfort food. Disaster recovery: I initially started this video project with the intent to use my slow cooker/crock pot, but those pesky kitchen gremlins sabotaged my slow cooker, so I had to finish the stew in my stew pot. Fortunately the stew turned out amazing! Ingredients: 700g lean diced stewing beef. 1 large onion, finely chopped. 12 closed cap mushrooms. 4 carrots, coarsely chopped. 120g cabbage, chopped. 120g cut green beans. 4 potatoes, quartered. 2 tablespoons of tomato puree/paste. Oil or lard for frying. 1 bottle of English brown ale. Salt and black pepper to taste. 4 teaspoons of plain/all purpose flour. Water as required. For the dumplings: 4 tablespoons of plain/all purpose flour 2 tablespoons of Half a teaspoon of baking powder. 1 teaspoon of salt. Black pepper to taste. 1 teaspoon of mixed dried herbs. Water as required. Enjoy!
