• The onions should have dissolved into the stew at this point, and only the most hardy chunks of potato will have survived the process.
• Allow stew to reach desired thickness.
• This may take some time.

• Remember, potato based stews WILL thicken somewhat after cooling.
• When desired thickness is reached, remove from heat.
