Stewing lamb
The Essence of Comfort Food

Stewing is probably one of the oldest methods for cooking a wonderful, soupy and delicious warm meal for the family. It's easy and sends wonderful aromas throughout the house. You can stew whole shoulder chops with creamy sauces, Italian style tomato bases or light vegetable broths for just a short time, or diced leg of lamb and shanks surrounded in stock, wine, vegetables and seasoning for an hour or two for that soft, fall-off-the-bone texture and rich flavor. And stewing is great for traditional, Mediterranean and also Asian flavors such as a tagine. Stews are perfect for sinking into a bed of buttery mash, polenta, rice or pasta.

Sauté the meat with vegetables over a medium heat, add your chosen liquid, reduce heat, cover and simmer until meat is tender.
