💡 Profesjonelle tips
- ✓For a deeper flavor, you can marinate the lamb in the stout overnight.
- ✓If you don't have Irish stout, any dark beer will work.
- ✓Root vegetables can be varied based on preference; potatoes, turnips, and rutabaga are good additions.
- ✓Ensure the stew filling is not too watery before adding the puff pastry, as this can make the pastry soggy.
