Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by washing and peeling the carrots and potatoes, then chop them along with the onions into even, bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, drizzle a generous splash of olive oil. Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until translucent and fragrant.
  3. Once the onions are cooked, stir in the diced carrots and potatoes. Sauté the mix for another 5-10 minutes.
  4. Pour in the Guinness, stirring well to deglaze the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Add the vegetable broth and canned tomatoes to the pot, stirring to combine. Toss in the thyme and bay leaf, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer uncovered for 30-40 minutes.
  6. Near the end of cooking, taste your stew and season with salt and pepper as desired.
