A classic method is to make a slurry with equal parts cold water and flour. Whisk it into the stew and let it simmer until thickened.

To thicken your Guinness beef stew, try adding a flour slurry (mix flour with a bit of water first) or stir in some mashed potatoes! Both work like magic . Cheers to a hearty, cozy meal!

To thicken Guinness beef stew, you can simmer it uncovered to reduce the liquid, add a cornstarch or flour slurry, or mash some of the potatoes into the stew for a creamy texture!
