From A Cook's Tour of Scotland by Sue Lawrence
Fife miner's stew
Method
2. Place the flour in a large plastic bag, add the meat and toss around to coat. Tip into the casserole with all the remaining ingredients. Stir, bring to the boil then cover. Place in the oven for 4 hours, stirring once. Season to taste, then serve ideally with soda scones.
Cook's note:For about a century, until the 1970s, this dish was a tradition in most Fife miners' homes for a late Sunday breakfast after church, their only day off. This recipe is a little more elaborate than the original - serve it with scones, mash or baked potatoes.
