Standing in the kitchen, Clodagh began by introducing the hearty recipe.

She said: “It’s really easy to make. We’re gonna elevate a stew to the next level.

“We’re gonna put these potato dumplings on top which are so good that you are never gonna make a stew again without potato dumplings.”

At just £2 a head, the chef went on to make the winter warmer.

One of the ingredients in the stew was 400ml of Irish stout.

She said: “Am I allowed to do this? Don’t hate me for this. I know you all want a sip as well.”

The chef appeared to drink from the bottle.

However, she added: “I didn’t really sip it, I promise!”

How did This Morning viewers react?

This Morning viewers were quick to pick up on the moment.

On Twitter, one complained: “@thismorning Clodagh nooooo, don’t drink from the bottle and then share your germs by pouring from the bottle into the food. I know the germs will be killed by cooking but still disgusting #Clodagh #ThisMorning.”

A second shared: “@thismorning charming #Clodagh’s mouth round the bottle then pouring it in the stew.”

Meanwhile, others poked fun at Clodagh for acting drunk during the segment.

They added: “@thismorning has Clodagh been drinking? She is just a little bit full of herself today. It makes for an uncomfortable viewing experience.”
