BASQUE LAMB STEW

Steps:

• Marinate lamb with garlic, rosemary, white wine: Combine the lamb, half of the garlic cloves, rosemary, and white wine in a medium bowl. Let marinate for 2 to 3 hours. Drain the meat, discard the marinade, and pat dry with paper towels. Mince the remaining garlic cloves and set aside.
• Brown the lamb: Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan with lid, over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown the meat on all sides, about 10 minutes per batch. Salt the meat as it browns.
• Sauté onions and garlic: Remove the meat from the pan and add the chopped onion to the pan. Cook, scraping browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon, until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another minute.
• Return meat to pan, add paprika, roasted peppers, tomatoes, parsley, bay leaf, red wine, bring to simmer: Return the meat to the pan with the onions and garlic. Stir in paprika, roasted peppers, tomatoes, parsley, bay leaf, and red wine. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, allowing the liquids to reduce a bit.
• Add chicken stock, simmer: Add the chicken stock, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until meat is very tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Add freshly ground black pepper and more salt to taste. Serve with rustic bread. If you want, try garnishing with fresh mint leaves (though I have no idea how "Basque" that is, it just tastes good.)

MARMITAKO - BASQUE BONITO STEW

Steps:

• Cook finelly chopped onion, green peppers and garlic until onion is translucent. Then add potatoes (the traditional way is as follows: You roughly start cutting a piece of potato but the last part you don't cut it, you tear the potato, this is said to release more of the potato starch and make it a thicker more rustic stew, so all the potato pieces should be irregular).
• Keep cooking for a couple of minutes. After that add the choricero peppers flesh (also called ñoras). These are dried peppers, you have to boil water, pour it over them and let them soak for a few minutes until the flesh reconstitutes and you can scrape it with the back of a knife or spoon. Also add the pealed tomato chopped.
• Then if you want you can add a little bit of white wine, and then add water just to cover everything, cook it until potatoes are fork tender.
• After that you cube the bonito, salt and pepper it and add it to the stew along with the parsley. Cover it with the lid and remove from heat, let it set for 5 minutes, adjust salt as needed and serve. Enjoy!
