Stews are normally our Winter go to meals. Especially when they are cooked in the slow cooker. Nothing beats the taste of a hot meal on a cold Winter’s night. Now that Spring is on the way I’ve started to focus my attention on Spring/Summer dishes.
However the weather in the UK is never stable. It’s can be like four seasons in one day. Therefore I will always think about Winter dishes as well. This stew was a delicious meal we ate on a cold wet spring evening. It was so tasty and it really helped to warm us up from the inside out.
