Anyone got a lovely recipe for Irish Stew please?

Nothing doing in any of my recipe books and I suddenly have a yearning. I've never made it before so would welcome a recommendation.

I use this one,though I add a few cloves of garlic too but then I put garlic in everything.

Oh thanks LTBR! Looks nice but suspiciously heavy on the onions. I will have a bash at it but am not going to do 5 cooking onions plus 3 spring onions - that seems mad! I'm so glad its got pearl barley in it, that's the key ingredient I remember from when my Nan used to make it.

I just use recipes as a guideline and adjust to taste. I love onions, can't get enough of them so it suits me but obviously you can alter it as necessary.

And you certainly can't have Irish stew without pearl barley.

Indeed.

Can't wait. Will do it Wednesday ...
