Suggested Products:

• Adams RWH Angus Beef Boneless Stew (for tender stew meat)
• Adams RWH Beef Stock 1 L (for rich, hearty flavor)
• Kanel Fresh Salted Peppercorns (to perfectly season your stew)

Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450 g) of Adams RWH Angus Beef Boneless Stew
  Tip: If you only have leftover cooked beef, that works too.
• 2 cups carrots, peeled and cut into chunks (par-boiled or pre-cooked for faster air frying)
• 2 cups potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks (par-boiled or pre-cooked for faster air frying)
• 1 cup Adams RWH Beef Stock (or your preferred beef broth)
• Kanel Fresh Salted Peppercorns , to taste (or your favorite salt and pepper)
• Optional herbs: thyme, rosemary, or bay leaf

Preparation:

1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for 3-5 minutes.

2. Assemble Your Stew: If your beef, carrots, and potatoes are already cooked or par-boiled, place them in an air fryer-safe baking dish or foil pan. Pour in the Adams RWH Beef Stock , and add your preferred herbs for extra aroma (thyme, rosemary, or bay leaf).

3. Season: Lightly sprinkle Kanel Fresh Salted Peppercorns (or your favorite salt and pepper) over the ingredients. Give it a quick stir to combine.

4. Air Fry: Place the dish carefully into the air fryer basket. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure everything warms evenly.
   Note: If starting with raw beef stew meat, make sure the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C). The extended cook time typically ensures doneness.

5. Taste and Serve: Once everything is heated through (and cooked through, if starting with raw ingredients), taste the stew and adjust seasonings as needed. Ladle into bowls and serve hot with crusty bread or Irish soda bread for a true comfort meal.

Pro Tip: If you want a thicker stew, remove the dish from the air fryer and stir in a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water) or flour slurry. Return it to the air fryer for another 5 minutes, stirring once or twice.
