👨🍳 Instrukcje
- 1
Rinse the pearl barley under cold water.

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

Add the chopped onion to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Return the lamb to the pot. Add the diced carrots, parsnips, and celery root. Stir well.

Pour in the broth, ensuring the lamb and vegetables are mostly submerged. Add the bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Bring to a simmer.

Once simmering, reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for 1.5 hours, or until the lamb is tender.

Stir in the rinsed pearl barley. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 30-45 minutes, or until the barley is cooked through and tender, and the stew has thickened.

Ladle the stew into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
