Easy Lamb Stew
I’ve brushed off his request but today the weather was slightly cooler, a little overcast and looked as if it was going to rain. So I thought it was my chance to get that Lamb Stew out-of-the-way. Hopefully he won’t ask again until Winter arrives. You should have seen that face light up when he got home from school. It makes it all worth it if my kids are happy. It’s also a good way to get them to eat their veggies, what’s more nutritious than a wholesome stew loaded with veggies. If I had more time in the day I would make some freshly baked bread rolls to go with the stew. Nothing beats dunking some fresh bread into all that delicious sauce. I don’t have time so they will have to settle for store-bought bread rolls.
How to make this Easy Lamb Stew
It is indeed an easy recipe. I sometimes cook it on the stovetop, if I am in a rush to get it cooked. If you do decide to cook it on the stovetop you may require and extra cup of stock, depending on how thick you like your stew. Today, however I cooked the stew in the oven. I must say it does make a difference to the flavor, slow-cooking makes everything so delicious. Also note that the cooking time on the stovetop will be different to the oven. Your stew can be ready in an hour on the stovetop. You can’t beat the comfort you get from a good home-cooked stew, especially when it’s bursting with flavor. Not that I eat lamb. The smell was enough to tempt me into eating lamb again…haha! I added carrots and potatoes to my stew but you can use any veggies of your choice. Please be careful when adding veggies to the stew, as some cook quicker than others. It’s also best to let your stew simmer on low heat until you get melt-in-your-mouth lamb.
You can serve this lamb stew with rice or some fresh bread rolls. I have a rice lover and a bread lover in my home. Both boys are so different with their eating habits. The younger one definitely has South Indian blood running in his veins, he can’t live without rice, definitely my son! I hope you try this recipe and if you do please drop me a comment and a star rating. It is always appreciated.
