6. Irish stew

Well… a vegan version. Recipe calls for a bottle of Guinness, which I didn’t have, so I subbed half a bottle of raspberry wind that had gone flat. Not quite the earthiness I was going for, but I also added a bag of diced Quorn (fake chik’n) so it probably doesn’t count as “Irish stew” at this point anyway.

I actually started this last night in the IP, then realized I’d forgotten to close the vent so it wasn’t cooking under pressure. Went back two hours later and hardly any of the veg had cooked. I was also going to grill a PB sandwich for dunking purposes, but found we were out of PB. End result is it’s been percolating all day and *now* we have groceries in the house and dinner can begin.

Just about to serve it up (yes, it’s 10 pm…) but my taste test tells me it’s going to be pretty good. Sure ought to be since those flavours have been coming together for over 24 hours. Derp.
