You never say when to add in the sweet potatoes or bay leaves to the pot? I can’t cook at all and any missing steps will really trip me up. Please revise? Thanks
Hello Cheryl…
You are very right about the sweet potatoes! Thanks for letting me know – sometimes I’m moving so fast I can forget things…I apprecaite that!
The bay leaves go in during step #3.
Okay, it’s all updated for you. My apologies.
Hope to see you around the site again soon,
Kimberly
Thanks for an idea, you sparked at thought from a angle I hadn’t given thought to yet. Now lets see if I can do something with it.
Oooh – let me know what you do differently with your oxtail stew that you didn’t before…Sounds like it will be delicious!
