Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (900g) lamb shoulder, cut into chunks
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup (240ml) red wine
  • 2 cups (480ml) beef or lamb broth
  • 1 can (14 oz/400g) diced tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup (150g) frozen peas
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, toss the lamb chunks with the flour until evenly coated.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the lamb in batches and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the lamb and set aside.

  7. Adjust the seasoning if needed and serve the lamb stew hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
