👨🍳 Zubereitung
- 1
Pat the lamb cubes dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
💡 Profitipps: Drying the lamb helps it brown better. - 2
Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Remove lamb and set aside.
- 3
Reduce heat to medium. Add chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- 4
Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped scotch bonnet pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- 5
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for about 5 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- 6
Return the browned lamb to the pot. Pour in the broth, add thyme sprigs, bay leaves, allspice berries, and cinnamon stick. Bring to a simmer.
💡 Profitipps: Ensure the liquid covers most of the lamb; add more broth or water if needed. - 7
Cover the pot, reduce heat to low, and simmer gently for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the lamb is tender.
- 8
Add the chopped carrots and sweet potatoes to the stew. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 30-45 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
- 9
While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the dumplings. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add cold water, mixing until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
💡 Profitipps: The dough should be soft but not sticky. - 10
Remove thyme sprigs, bay leaves, allspice berries, and cinnamon stick from the stew. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
💡 Profitipps: Remove whole spices before serving. - 11
Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough onto the surface of the simmering stew. Cover the pot tightly and cook for 15-20 minutes without lifting the lid, until dumplings are puffed and cooked through.
💡 Profitipps: Do not lift the lid while the dumplings are steaming. - 12
Serve the lamb stew hot, with dumplings on top.
💡 Profitipps: Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
