Arahan

Season beef with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium high heat. Working in batches, add beef to the stockpot and cook, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, about 6-8 minutes; set aside.

Reduce heat to medium. Add onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Whisk in flour and tomato paste until lightly browned, about 1 minute.

Stir in Guinness, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the stockpot.

Stir in beef stock, Worcestershire, thyme, bay leaves and beef. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until beef is very tender, about 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

Remove and discard thyme sprigs and bay leaves. Stir in parsley; season with salt and pepper, to taste.*

Serve immediately with mashed potatoes, if desired.
