  1. The beef should already be cut into stew size pieces but if it is not you should do so now.
  2. Heat a large pot and fry the beef over a high temperature until it has been browned all over, this may take up to 5 minutes.
  3. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside on a plate for the moment.
  4. Without cleaning the pot add the chopped onions, potatoes and carrots to the pot and cook while stirring gently for 5 minutes.
  5. Add the thyme leaves and tomato puree and cook for a further 2 minutes.
  6. Add the Guinness and stock and turn the temperature down as low as possible and cook for 2 hours or until the beef is super soft and tender.
