Heat the oil or lamb fat 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 the browned lamb and set aside.

Add the chopped onions and diced carrots to the pot. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the lamb is tender and the buckwheat is cooked through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Low and slow simmering is key to tender lamb and perfectly cooked buckwheat. - 7
Remove the bay leaf. Stir in most of the fresh dill, reserving some for garnish. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
