👨🍳 Istruzioni

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven (or a traditional gyuvech pot), layer the ingredients: start with the quartered onions and minced garlic, followed by the seasoned lamb. Add the chopped bell peppers, quartered potatoes, and chopped tomatoes.
💡 Consigli Professionali: You can also add other vegetables like carrots or green beans. - 4
Pour the beef or vegetable broth and red wine (if using) over the ingredients. The liquid should come about halfway up the ingredients.

Cover the pot tightly with a lid or foil. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the lamb is very tender.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Check periodically and add a little more broth or water if it looks dry. - 6
Once the lamb is tender, remove the lid for the last 15-20 minutes of cooking to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.

Serve the stew hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley. It's traditionally served directly from the pot.
💡 Consigli Professionali: This stew pairs well with crusty bread for soaking up the delicious juices.
