Here is how you make Irish Beef Stew Recipe:

METHOD1 Heat olive oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Lightly salt the beef pieces.

Continue to cook in this manner until all sides are browned, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saut? 1 minute. Add beef stock, Guinness, red wine, tomato paste, sugar, thyme, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Stir to combine. Bring mixture to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, then cover and simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally.2 While the meat and stock is simmering, melt butter in another large pot over medium heat. Add potatoes, onion and carrots. Saut? vegetables until golden, about 20 minutes. Set aside until the beef stew in step one has simmered for one hour.3 Add vegetables to beef stew. Simmer uncovered until vegetables and beef are very tender, about 40 minutes. Discard bay leaves. Tilt pan and spoon off fat. Transfer stew to serving bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with parsley and serve. (Can be prepared up to 2 days ahead. Cool slightly. Refrigerate uncovered until cold, then cover and refrigerate.
