Irish Stew

Served on the Queen Mary on 19 March 1966, this is the chef's own description: 'Choice succulent youngLamb, stewed with early Spring Vegetables and Potatoes until as thick听as the Bogs of County Clare and nostalgic of the streets of Old Dublin'.听 It is a meal in itself, but Irish soda bread to soak up the gravy would be both authentic and delicious.听 The other traditional side dish is pickled red cabbage.

St Patrick's Day Menu, Queen Mary, Cunard
