cont hen all the meat is browned and out of the pan, whisk or stir in the orange juice and stout and let it come to the boil. Add the water and then return the meat and vegetables to the pan. Stir in the orange zest and bay leaves, bring to the boil and then turn the stew down to a soft simmer. Cover and cook for 2 1/2 hours. .

Have just put on a lamb casserole with lamb pieces, onion, mushrooms, tinned apricots, curry powder, mixed herbs and balsamic vinegar. It's tasting and looking pretty good, am going to cook it for a couple of hours so the Lamb is really tender. Smells great! !

tastes great - the whole thing was demolished in record time - leave out the mushies if that doesn't appeal but apricots and curry go really well together
