Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb cubes on all sides. Remove lamb and set aside.
💡 Proffstips: Ensure the lamb is browned well for maximum flavor. - 2
Add the chopped onions and diced carrots to the pot. Sauté until the onions are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
💡 Proffstips: Sautéing the vegetables builds a sweet flavor base for the casserole. - 3
Stir in the rice, dried mint, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring to coat the rice grains.
💡 Proffstips: Toasting the rice slightly enhances its nutty flavor. - 4
Return the browned lamb to the pot. Stir in the tomato paste. Pour in the lamb or vegetable broth.
💡 Proffstips: Make sure the liquid is sufficient to cook the rice and lamb. - 5
Bring the mixture to a simmer on the stovetop. Cover the pot tightly with a lid or foil and transfer to the preheated oven.
💡 Proffstips: A tight seal is crucial for even cooking and preventing the rice from drying out. - 6
Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the lamb is very tender and the rice is fully cooked and has absorbed most of the liquid.
💡 Proffstips: Check periodically after 1 hour to ensure it's not drying out; add a splash more broth if needed. - 7
Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
💡 Proffstips: Resting allows the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.
