Irish Lamb Stew Recipe
Ingredients
- 1.36 kg lamb cut into cubes, I used boneless leg of lamb
- 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 12 pearl onions peeled, or 1 large onion chopped
- 3 medium carrots cut into 1 inch pieces
- 6 medium potatoes peeled and cubed, about 6 medium potatoes
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1 teaspoon pepper or to taste
- 1 cup Guinness stout
- 940 ml beef broth low sodium, or vegetable/chicken/lamb broth
- 2 tablespoon parsley fresh and chopped, for garnish
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350℉.
-
Toss the lamb cubes with the flour well, ensuring each piece is coated in flour.
-
Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven. Toss in the meat and brown it on all sides, until nice and brown. You might have to do this in a couple batches. Remove the meat from the pot and set aside.
-
Add the carrots, onions, potatoes, tomato paste, herbs and spices to the Dutch oven. Add a splash of the broth or Guinness and scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook for a couple minutes, then add the meat back to the pot and the remaining broth along with the Guinness stout. Bring to a boil then season again with salt and pepper if needed.
-
Cover the pot and transfer to the oven to simmer for 1½ hours to 2 hours, until the meat is very tender.
-
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.
