👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Season the lamb pieces generously with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Remove lamb and set aside.

Add onions, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes.

Stir in the minced garlic and tomato paste, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Pour in the white wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to deglaze. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced.

Return the lamb to the pot. Add the lamb broth, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the lamb is tender.
- 7
Add the chopped potatoes to the stew. Cover and continue to cook for another 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the stew has thickened.

Remove the herb sprigs and bay leaf before serving. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

Ladle the stew into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓For a richer flavor, you can marinate the lamb overnight with some herbs and garlic.
- ✓Ensure the stew is simmering gently, not boiling, for the most tender lamb.
- ✓If the stew is too thin, you can thicken it by mashing some of the potatoes against the side of the pot or by making a slurry of cornstarch and water.
