LEEK 'N LAMB STEW (MEAL IN ONE POT)

Leek 'n Lamb Stew (meal in One Pot) image

This is a little different than the stews I could find on Zaar. It is by Philomena Corradeno's Chopping Block with a few small changes by me. Serve with a green salad and some crusty bread to sop up the sauce. If you wish you may thicken the sauce by adding 2 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1/4 cup cold water for the final 15 minutes of cooking. I like mine with out the thickening.

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 pounds lamb shoulder, bones and fat removed, meat cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil
4 leeks, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried)
1 tablespoon flour
2 cups dry white wine
2 cups lamb or chicken stock
8 boiling potatoes, peeled
8 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

Pat the lamb pieces dry with paper towels and season to taste with salt and pepper. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large casserole and saute the pieces, a few at a time, until they are lightly browned on all sides. Remove to a bowl with a slotted spoon. Pour off the fat.
Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and saute the leeks, garlic and thyme until the leaves are soft.
Return the lamb to the casserole and sprinkle on the flour, stirring vigorously to coat all the pieces of meat. Add wine and bring it to boil, stirring well and scraping off any pieces that have stuck to the bottom of the pan. Add chicken stock, cover and simmer gently, stirring occasionally for about an hour.
Add potatoes and cook until they are tender. If more liquid is needed, add hot chicken stock or water. Correct seasoning, add parsley and serve.
