As the name suggests, we've added baked beans to our stew but don't let it put you off: it adds a rich depth of flavour and adds filling proteins to make this Beef and Baked Bean Stew even more satisfying. If you've not heard of Henderson's Relish before, it's a sauce that's very similar to Worcestershire sauce that's naturally gluten free. We use it in many of our recipes and you can find it in most supermarkets in the condiment aisle.
Serve on its own for a delicious dinner as the nights get colder, or with a wholemeal roll for dipping.

This recipe is suitable for dairy free diets.
It can also be made suitable for gluten free diets as long as you use gluten free versions of the following ingredients:

We've used Henderson's Relish in this recipe, which is a gluten free substitute to Worcestershire Sauce. You can find it in the condiments aisle in the supermarket.
