Traditional British Dishes
IRISH LAMB STEW
Irish Lamb stew is one of Ireland’s traditional dishes. Here’s what you need to make an Irish stew: lamb, potatoes, carrots, onions, peas and turnips.
First, peel and chop the vegetables. Then, cut the lamb into pieces. Finally, put everything in a saucepan of water and boil it. It’s very easy and it’s a delicious meal!
ROAST BEEF AND YORKSHIRE PUDDING
Roast beef and Yorkshire pudding is one of England’s traditional dishes. You need some beef, milk, eggs, flour and fat.
Put the beef in the oven for an hour. Next, mix the eggs, flour and milk in a bowl. Heat the fat in the oven and pour the mixture into the fat. It’s easy and delicious, too.
WELSH RAREBIT
