Delicious Lamb Stew Recipe

Delicious Lamb Stew Recipe

Dec 17, 2024Elizabeth Yakubu

If you are like me, you will know that there are days when you just feel like eating something totally different from the usual beef, chicken or turkey. Lamb shines through perfectly on these days! And when you get your lamb fully cooked in delicious stew, oh yummy! It would hit the right notes in every eater at your family dinner, weekend treat etc. So, if you’re craving something delicious, full of flavour, and perfect for sharing with your family, lamb stew is the ultimate choice. 


Why Lamb Stew?

Lamb stew is rich, tender, and bursts with deep flavors every time. The lamb soaks up the spices and creates a warm broth that you can pair deliciously with rice, yam, potatoes, or even crusty bread. Also, making this stew allows you enjoy the richness of lamb plus the healthiness of fresh vegetables and spices.


What You’ll Need

Here’s a list of ingredients to make the perfect lamb stew. Most of these can be found at My Sasun African Market:

  • 1 kg of lamb (cut into chunks)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion (chopped)
  • 3 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon ginger (grated)
  • 3 fresh tomatoes (blended) or 1 can of diced tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 medium carrots (sliced)
  • 2 medium potatoes (cut into chunks)
  • 1 green bell pepper (chopped)
  • 1 cup green peas (optional)
  • 4 cups beef or vegetable stock
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 bay leaves
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 scotch bonnet or chili pepper (optional, for heat)

 

Instructions

  • Season the lamb chunks with salt, black pepper, and a little paprika.
  • Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb pieces until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same pot, add the chopped onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until they become fragrant and the onions are translucent.
  • Add the tomato paste and let it cook for about 2 minutes to reduce the tanginess.
  • Stir in the blended or canned tomatoes, curry powder, thyme, and paprika. Allow this mixture to simmer for 5–7 minutes, keep stirring.
  • Return the seared lamb to the pot and mix well with the tomato base.
  • Add the stock and bay leaves, then bring the stew to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 40 minutes to an hour.
  • Toss in the carrots, potatoes, and bell peppers. If you’re using green peas, add them during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
  • Simmer until the vegetables are tender and the lamb melts in your mouth from a small bite. Oh, yummy! 
  • Check the seasoning and add more salt, pepper, or spices if needed. Remove the bay leaves before serving.

How to Serve Lamb Stew

This lamb stew is incredibly versatile. You can enjoy it with:

  • Steamed rice
  • Mashed potatoes
  • Boiled yam or plantains
  • Fresh bread to soak up the broth

Note: 

  1. Lamb tastes best when cooked slowly, so, cook on low/medium heat.
  2. Use beef or vegetable stock instead of plain water for a richer taste.

  • If you suffer from the herpes virus infection no worries; I want to help people figure out what they have and what helped me to completely eradicate the Herpes virus infection.
    I had unprotected sex and a few days later felt sick thinking I was just hungover. After spending a day at the beach I felt like I had severe sun exhaustion. For the next three days, I had a bad fever off and on. I noticed what I thought was a canker sore inside my lower lip. I started to suspect I had herpes.
    I searched online and called different clinics and few days later I was in the midst of a full blown outbreak! Sores all over my labia and anus and mouth. I became very, very depressed and was even thinking of suicide.
    I started to try everything I could find online. None of these remedies had any visible results.
    Finally, I found a naturopathic doctor, who honestly told me I should contact Dr. Utu for my condition and recommended the herpes herbal cleanser.
    I ordered the Herpes Herbal Cleanser through a DHL Express courier and started treatment
    Within two days I started seeing good results with only one sore left on my genitals and my mouth was all healed.
    I completed the herbal treatment under Dr Utu guidance and he asked me to go do a blood test which I curiously did
    I got the results of my blood test and can’t believe that I tested negative for HSV2 and negative for HSV1
    People still cure herpes infection with herbal medicine and even other more deadly diseases with lifestyle changes and herbal medicine
    While there are bad doctors and bad physicians in clinics and online, there are also the good ones and Dr Utu is one of the best.
    Dr Utu can only be reached at

  • HOW I RESTORED MY STOLEN BITCOIN WITH THE HELP OF THE HACK ANGELS RECOVERY AGENCY.
    I want to share my incredible experience with THE HACK ANGELS RECOVERY AGENCY. It’s really a testimony for me. I found myself in such a predicament not too long ago, having invested a significant amount of money in what I believed to be a promising platform, only to discover it was nothing more than a fraudulent scheme. I was defrauded of $1.6 million in Bitcoins. I learnt my lesson. I made every attempt to get my money back from them, but with no success. Eventually, a buddy who had gone through a similar situation suggested THE HACK ANGELS RECOVERY AGENCY. A recovery AGENCY. I got in touch with them via
    WhatsApp +1(520)200-2320 ) or shoot them an Email at (support@thehackangels.com) They also have a great Website at (www.thehackangels.com )
    And with their technical expertise. they were able to easily retrieve all of the money that had been stolen. I heartily suggest them to anyone experiencing a similar situation. They focus on individualized care and transparent communication, ensuring client support throughout the process.
