Braces Friendly Recipe: Week 15

We hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day! This week's recipe is for a savory stew (since it's supposed to be rainy and cold over the next few days here in the Las Vegas Valley).

This week's recipe comes from recipegoldmine.com

Irish Stew and Dumplings

3/4 pound beef, cut into cubes
3/4 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon fat (shortening)
1/4 cup carrot
1/4 cup turnip
1/4 cup onion
3/4 cup diced potato
2 1/2 cups boiling water
Salt and pepper to taste

Dredge beef cubes in a mixture of the flour and salt. Brown meat in fat; remove with slotted spoon and set aside.

Place remaining ingredients in crock pot. Add browned beef. Do not stir. Cover, cook on LOW about 5 hours.

When meat is tender, remove meat and vegetables from crock pot. Mix 3 tablespoons flour to 3 tablespoons water (plus dashes of salt and pepper) in a cup until the mixture resembles paste. Stir into liquid in crock pot. When liquid is heated, return meat and vegetables to heat. Add dumplings and cook for one more hour.

Dumplings:
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 tablespoon shortening
1/4 cup milk

Sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening. Gradually add milk; mix until smooth. Drop by tablespoons on hot stew. Cover. Cook for last hour.
