Directions
Heat a 6 quart stove top casserole or ovenproof pot and add the oil and the bay leaves. Cook the bay leaves for a moment and then add the meat. Brown the meat on both sides on “high” heat. Add the onion and cook for a few minutes until it is clear. Reduce the heat to “low” and add the garlic, thyme, rosemary and flour and stir until smooth. Add the beef stock and stout; simmer, stirring until the stew thickens a bit. Add the remaining ingredients and cover. Place the pot in the oven at 275 degrees for about 2 hours, stirring a couple of times. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
