BASIC LAMB STEW WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Trim the fat from the lamb chops, then cut the meat into 1-inch pieces. Place the meat and bones in a stockpot or Dutch oven; barely cover the meat with about 1 1/4 cups water. Cover the pan and simmer for 45 minutes (do not boil).
• Add the potato, carrots, onion, celery, green pepper, and optional rutabaga with salt and pepper to the meat in the Dutch oven.
• Cover and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, until meat and vegetables are tender.
• Using tongs, remove the bones to a bowl and discard.
• Remove the Dutch oven from the heat.
• Mix the flour and cold water. Stir the mixture into the stew. Return to heat. Cook, stirring until the stew is thickened.
• Add the chopped parsley and taste and adjust the seasonings.
• Serve the stew hot. You'll want some biscuits, rolls, or bread to sop up the stew. It's also nice to start with a green salad. Good wines to pair with lamb stew are those that are simple red blends that aren't too tannic. Or, you can pair it with a British pale ale. Refrigerate any leftovers and use within three to four days. The stew reheats well in the microwave for lunch or dinner. If you don't think you can finish the leftovers in that time, freeze the stew in an airtight container. Frozen stew will maintain the best quality for four to six months.

LAMB STEW WITH SPRING VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the canola oil in a medium (10- to 11-inch) ovenproof pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook for 5 minutes, until browned. Transfer the bacon to a large plate, leaving the fat in the pan. Dry the lamb with paper towels and toss it in a bowl first with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, and then with the 1/4 cup of flour. Raise the heat to medium high and cook half the lamb in the bacon fat for 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned. Add the lamb to the plate with the bacon and brown the second batch, also transferring it to the plate. Add the garlic to the pot and cook for one minute.
• Pour the lamb and bacon, along with any juices that collect, back into the pot. Add the beef stock, wine, tomatoes (including the juice), thyme, rosemary, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and bring to a boil, scraping up the brown bits in the pot. Simmer for 5 minutes, cover, and place in the oven for 30 minutes. Add the carrots, potatoes, onions, and turnips, cover, and return to the oven for 1 hour, until all the vegetables are tender.
• Mash the 2 tablespoons of flour with the butter in a small bowl. Stir the mixture into the stew, and simmer on top of the stove for 3 minutes. Off the heat, stir in the peas and parsley, season to taste, and serve hot in large shallow bowls.

SLOW COOKER LAMB STEW

LEFTOVER LEG OF LAMB & RED POTATO STEW

Steps:

• I use an overnight marinade for my roast. There are several on this site to pick from. I cook per recipe #600948 High Altitude Lamb. I have all the seasonings in the marinade that are listed in this, so I only add the slivers of garlic. Reserve the juices and freeze for use in the stew. After a few meals of the roast, I throw the leftover in the freezer until I want to make some stew.
• In a crock pot, combine all ingredients. Amount of vegetables can be adjusted. I state 4 cups of water, I add enough water to slightly cover the ingredients. Cover & cook on high for a few hours then turn on low and cook for about 8-10 more hours. I find with stew, the longer you cook it the thicker it gets. (If you prefer a thick stew, you can flour your lamb prior to placing in crock pot too.) All ingredients are adjustable to your taste.
• Prep time and cooking time do not include the cooking of the roast.
