Print Recipe

A classic Irish stew featuring sausages, bacon, potatoes, and onions, perfect for a hearty meal.

Ingredients

  • 6 pork sausages (Irish bangers preferred)
  • 6 slices bacon (streaky or back), chopped
  • 4 medium waxy potatoes (e.g., Yukon Gold), sliced
  • 2 onions, thickly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 1 leek (optional), sliced
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 3 cups chicken, beef, or vegetable stock
  • 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
  • ½ cup Guinness or hard cider
  • 1 tbsp parsley (for garnish)
  • Pinch of allspice
  • 1 tbsp flour (for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Heat a large ovenproof pot with butter or oil. Brown sausages on all sides, then remove and set aside.
  3. Add chopped bacon to the pot and cook until it starts to brown.
  4. Add onions, garlic, carrots, and leek. Cook until onions are soft.
  5. Sprinkle flour over the veggies and stir for 1 minute.
  6. Pour in stock and Guinness or cider. Scrape the pan to lift any browned bits.
  7. Return sausages to the pot. Add potatoes, bay leaves, thyme, pepper, and allspice. Push ingredients down so they sit partly in the liquid.
  8. Cover and bake 1 to 1.5 hours until potatoes are tender and stew is thick.
  9. Garnish with parsley and serve.

Notes

For stovetop method, brown sausages and bacon, then sauté vegetables and add stock. Simmer until potatoes are soft. Serve immediately.
