SCOTTISH STEW AND DOUGHBOYS

Steps:

• Chop up beef; roll into seasoned flour.
• Place into a hot oiled pan to brown (Will go crusty on the base. Do not worry).
• Add the chopped onion, carrots, and turnips. Cook on medium until softened.
• Dissolve beef bouillon cubes in about 3/4 pint of water.
• Pour mixture into stew.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Slow cook on low heat until beef is tender, approximately 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
• Stir often and keep the gravy level up by adding water.
• DOUGHBOYS:.
• Blend flour and suet together.
• Mix in a little water at a time to make a dough.
• Roll into balls and place on top of gravy about 15 to 20 minutes from end of cooking.
• Make sure there is enough gravy as they soak up the liquid.
• Best cooked with lid on pan.
• When ready they are light and fluffy about double the size.
• To serve, take out doughboys and thicken the gravy if required with gravy thickener or a little cornflour mixed with water.
• I like to cook the stew in the morning, switch it off and reheat when making the doughboys for our evening meal; always tastes much better.

• From Wikipedia..... Chowder is a seafood or vegetable stew, often served with milk or cream and mostly eaten with saltine crackers. Chowder is usually thickened with broken up crackers, but some varieties are traditionally thickened with crushed ship biscuit. New England clam chowder is typically made with chopped clams and diced potatoes, in a mixed cream and milk base, often with a small amount of butter. Other common chowders include Manhattan clam chowder, which substitutes tomatoes for the milk and cream and typically omits potatoes; corn chowder, which uses corn instead of clams; a wide variety of fish chowders; and potato chowder, which is often made with cheese.
• The origin of the term chowder is obscure. One possible source is the French word chaudière, the type of cooking/heating stove on which the first chowders were probably cooked. (This, if true, would be similar to the origin of casserole, a generic name for a set of main courses originally prepared in a dish called a casserole.)[1] Another possible (and maybe more probable) source could be the French dish called chaudrée (sometimes spelt chauderée) which is a sort of thick fish soup from the coastal regions of Charente-Maritime and Vendée. The phonetic variant chowda, found in New England, is believed to have originated in Newfoundland in the days when Breton fisherman would throw portions of the day's catch into a large pot, along with other available foods.[1] Fish chowder, corn chowder, and clam chowder continue to enjoy popularity in New England and Atlantic Canada.
• NOTE !!!! 12-15 minutes Cover the pot. Note the time at which the water comes to a boil again. From that point, boil the lobsters for 12-20 minutes or longer, depending on the size of the lobster. 12-15 minutes for 1 lb lobster, 15-20 minutes for a 1 1/2 pound lobster, 20-25 minutes for a 2-3 pound lobster.
