easy stew (New Zealand Stew)

This is one of my favorites and is really easy. It was passed down by my Grandma, but don't know the origin. Its tangy. Margaret's New Zealand Stew

Can serve with rice, potatoes or egg noodles. I prefer rice. May serve with salad or cooked carrots for a side. It comes out of the oven with a nice sauce and the whole house smells good. Clean up is pretty easy with only one-dish. I often soak it overnight and then wash it the next morning.
