👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the lamb (and beef/veal if using) generously with salt and pepper.
💡 전문가 팁: Ensure the meat is well-seasoned before searing.
2
Heat a generous amount of oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Sear the meat in batches until browned on all sides, about 2-4 minutes per side. Remove the meat from the pan and set aside.
3
If using a clay pot or Dutch oven, pour some of the rendered fat from the pan into it. Otherwise, use a baking pan. Layer the ingredients in the pot/pan in the following order: onion, garlic, seared meat, bell peppers, potatoes, and carrots. Sprinkle with Vegeta or stock powder.
💡 전문가 팁: Layering ensures even cooking and flavor distribution.
4
Add the green beans on top of the other vegetables. If desired, dot with butter and add optional water or broth.
💡 전문가 팁: Butter adds richness, and liquid helps create a stew.
5
Cover the pot/pan tightly with a lid or foil. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
6
Reduce the oven temperature to 390°F (200°C) and bake for an additional 30-45 minutes, or until the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
💡 전문가 팁: Check for tenderness of meat and vegetables.
7
Let the stew rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. Serve hot.
