Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 pounds lamb shoulder roast cubed into 1″ pieces
- 2 carrots peeled and cut into rounds
- 2 stalks celery chopped
- Kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 6 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 1 cup red wine
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 pounds baby potatoes halved
- ¼ cup freshly chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or saucepan set over medium heat. Toss in the lamb and cook for 10 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even searing. Put it on a plate.
- Sauté the onion, carrots, and celery in the same saucepan for 5 minutes, or until tender. Add salt and pepper.
- Add garlic and tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant and the tomato paste has darkened, before adding cumin, and paprika.
- Place the lamb back into the Dutch oven and add the broth, wine, Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, and bay leaves.
- Raise the temperature to a boil, then lower to a simmer. Add salt and pepper. Simmer, covered, for 30 minutes, or until the lamb is fork-tender.
- Toss in the potatoes and cook them in a covered pot for 30 minutes, or until they’re soft and the stew has thickened.
- Take out the bay leaves, and rosemary, and sprinkle on the parsley before serving.
Notes
- Quality Ingredients: Use high-quality lamb, fresh vegetables, and a good red wine for the best results.
- Proper Browning: Ensure the lamb is well-browned for a depth of flavor in the stew.
- Balanced Seasoning: Season with salt and pepper at each step for a well-balanced taste.
- Simmer Slowly: Simmer the stew on low heat to achieve tender, flavorful meat.
- Fresh Herbs: Fresh rosemary and parsley add a burst of fresh flavor, so don’t skimp on them.
