Categories     Main Course

Time 3h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds lamb stew meat (cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion (chopped)
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes (with their liquid)
2 cups water
2 cups cubed butternut squash (about 3/4-inch)
½ cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Season the lamb with salt and pepper. In a large pot heat the oil over medium high heat, then brown the lamb on all sides, about 6 minutes in all. Transfer the lamb to a plate with a slotted spoon. Add the onions and garlic to the same pan and sauté for about 5 minutes over medium heat until the onions are tender and lightly golden.
  • Add the ginger, coriander, cinnamon and red pepper flakes to the pot and stir so that the onion is coated with the spices. Add the tomatoes and the water, return the lamb to the pot, and bring to a simmer over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and keep it at a low simmer for about 2 hours, until the lamb is almost tender. Add the squash and simmer for another 45 minutes until the lamb is very tender and the squash is cooked through.
  • Sprinkle over or stir in the parsley and serve hot.

LAMB STEW WITH CHICKPEAS AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH



Lamb Stew With Chickpeas and Butternut Squash image

There is no high drama about simmering a stew. However fine, stew is a homey, intimate exchange, a paean to the way living things improve when their boundaries relax, when they incorporate some of the character and flavor of others. Soulful, a word inextricably linked with a good sturdy stew, is the payoff to the cook who plans a little and has the patience to abide. Here, long-simmered lamb combines with chickpeas and butternut squash to yield a stew rich with the flavors of cumin, cardamom and coriander, that can help keep a chilly night at bay.

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, plus more to taste
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 pound lamb stewing meat, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
5 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 small onion, peeled and thinly sliced
2 large cloves garlic, peeled and minced
3 cups chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium canned
1 small butternut squash, peeled, seeds and fibers scooped out, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1 19-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Combine the spices and salt in a bowl. In a large bowl, stir together 1/4 cup flour and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the spice mixture, add the lamb and coat well. Heat 3 teaspoons of oil in a large pot. Add lamb a few pieces at a time; don't overcrowd. Turn the pieces until lamb is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch; add a teaspoon of oil as needed between batches.
  • Remove the lamb and set aside. Add the remaining teaspoon of oil and the onion to the pot. Cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 15 seconds. Stir in the lamb and remaining spice mixture. Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil, then reduce to a slow simmer. Cover and cook until the lamb is tender, about 1 hour. Stir in the squash and chickpeas and cook, covered, for 10 minutes.
  • Stir 3 tablespoons of the cooking liquid into 2 tablespoons of flour to make a smooth paste. Stir the paste into the stew and cook until the broth thickens and the squash is tender, about 10 minutes longer. Add salt and pepper to taste. Divide among 4 bowls, garnish with cilantro and serve.

Squash and Lentil Lamb Stew image

My family lived in New Zealand many years ago. Every Sunday my mother made a lamb stew-it was Dad's favorite! I changed the recipe to suit my family's more modern palates, but it seems just as exotic and delicious. -Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada
