	Steak Beer

		Steak & Guinness Pie 2 1/4 pounds round beef 1 Tablespoon flour 1 Teaspoon brown sugar 1 Tablespoon raisins 5 onions 10 fl.oz Guinness 8 slices bacon 3 ounces lard parsley - chopped short crust pastry Cut the steak into bite-sized cubes, roll in seasoned flour and brown in the lard with the bacon, chopped small. Place the meat in a casserole, peel and chop the onions and fry until golden before adding them to the meat. Add the raisins and brown sugar, pour in the Guinness, cover tightly and simmer over a low heat or in a very moderate oven (350F/180C/Gas 4) for 2 1/2 hours. Stir occasionally and add a little more Guinness or water if the rich brown gravy gets too thick. Meanwhile, line a deep pie dish with half the pastry: bake it blind then add the Guinness/beef mixture from the casserole, cover with the top layer of pastry and bake until finished, probably about 10 more minutes.
