lamb stew

Braised young mutton

Lamb stew is a slow-cooked dish of lamb pieces simmered with vegetables, broth, and seasonings until tender.

The long cooking transforms tough cuts into something rich and falling apart.

Regional variations abound—Irish stew keeps it simple with potatoes and onions, while Moroccan versions add dried fruit and warm spices: We made lamb stew to warm up after the hike.
