Irish Stew

  • YIELD6 to 8 servings
  • TIME1 hour 30 minutes
 
 

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 pounds lamb shoulder cut in 2-inch chunks (or use thick shoulder chops)
  •  Salt and pepper
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 pounds onions (about 6 medium), cut in wedges
  • 1 pound carrots (about 6 medium), cut in 3-inch lengths
  • 4 cups chicken, veal or beef broth (or water)
  • 1 large sprig thyme
  • 3 pounds russet potatoes (about 12 small), peeled and halved, or cut in 2-inch thick slices


     PREPARATION
  1. Pat lamb dry and season well with salt and pepper. Put oil in a heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium-high heat. Brown meat on all sides, working in batches.
  2. Set meat aside and add onions and carrots to pot. Season with salt and pepper. Cook vegetables, stirring, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Return meat to pot, add broth and bring to a simmer. Put in thyme sprig and arrange potatoes on top (it’s fine if potatoes are not completely submerged). Season potatoes, cover pot and transfer to oven.
  4. Bake for about 1 hour, until lamb is quite tender when probed with a skewer or paring knife. Remove fat from top of broth. Ladle stew into shallow bowls and serve.

Tip

  • Alternatively, cook stew on stovetop instead of baking; keep covered at a gentle simmer for about 1 hour. For a thicker stew, crush a few of the potatoes from the stew and simmer in broth, or thicken with a slurry of flour and water (about 4 tablespoons flour).
