So goooooood.
Thank You💞
I once attended a burns night. That night sucked balls. Very disappointed.
At what oven temperature?
Any idea where i can get hold of a pan/pot like this please?
Might use a Guinness instead of a wine but looks nice
Where’s the iron brew
Made this today. It was very good
I follow you and I can’t believe I’ve only just seen this recipe. I had visitors the day after I made it. Omg it was amazing. Some nice touches in that. They couldn’t get over how luscious it was and said it was the best they’d ever tasted. I noticed reading some of the comments that some say it’s not Scottish. It’s a recognised fact that there are as many “original” recipes in all the counties, as well as England, Wales and Scotland as there are families and grannies. And tempers can flare over the different methods, ingredients and even names of dishes. It’s your dish. It’s delicious. Keep up the good work. That is one amazing Scottish Welsh English stews. Well done
Is the wine optional?
I’ve made this a few times…. So good..my favorite stew also!
Making this right now! The sauce is amazing! We have 2 more hours to go before we can enjoy! Thank you for sharing!
Just made this. Absolutely delicious! Followed the recipe to the letter except I had no Worcestershire sauce (rookie error) so used marmite instead. Worked just fine.
what temperature should the oven be?
Your going to love this my husband and I r living in Ireland he has beef featured on tv for his irish beef stew I'm making him this thanks
What on earth is 'scottish' about this,wev'e had this dish in the West Country for generations.
Today I learned what a swede was. Am going to try this with my next beef stew.
My favourite Scottish recipe is whisky.
Nice. What heat level for oven?
I'm confused no broth? That's a lot of wine 👀😩
Delicious 🤤
I was born on burns night so was zoey
I made this tonight. Wowowowow! i followed directions to the T, came out perfect. So delicious and comforting, my family ate it up like it crack. Sooooo good. i served it on top of your mashed potato recipe.
I made this tonight, and it’s probably the best stew I’ve ever had. I was a little unsure about the addition of the cranberry sauce, but it was amazing!! This will definitely be something I cook monthly. Don’t skip the fresh thyme sprinkled on top, it really ties it all together.
I am very interested in the manufacture of your wall stove….have been looking for the same type wall stove for sometime. Can you please tell me the the manufacturer name and model number. Thank you…Really like your your cooking show. My Grandmother was from Inverness and some day I hope to return to Scotland…. Thank you in advance, Sean Carrington, Seward Alaska, USA

Moved abroad 2& half years ago and get a bit homesick, but watching (and making your dishes) helps me cope. I'm a retired gas engineer /plumber not by choice..now a full-time stay at home dad..love your videos.
