Dark, sticky stew

This reminds me of winter days in my youth, when I would come home late completely soaked through and shivering from playing down by the stream in the pouring rain. Mum would give me a rollicking about catching pneumonia, and then she'd give me a big bowl of stew. This dish just makes you feel really happy, and it's also dead cheap to make.
