SPANISH-STYLE LAMB STEW
John Willoughby fell in love with pimentón, a smoky Spanish paprika, after a trip to La Vera, a region west of Madrid, first encountering it in a lamb stew. "The stew, rich with the slight gaminess of lamb, the tang of sherry and the smooth comfort of white beans, was brought to greatness by the subtle heat and almost mysterious smokiness of the pimentón," he wrote. He drew inspiration from the stew, making his own version at home and bringing this recipe to The Times in 2010.

Steps:
- Warm oil in a large heavy-bottom pot with a lid or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, sprinkle lamb generously with salt and pepper and cook in batches to avoid overcrowding, turning once or twice, until each piece is well browned all over, about 15 minutes total. Transfer pieces to a plate as they brown.
- Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat and add onions, bell pepper, garlic and a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions and peppers are softened, about 5 minutes. Add pimentón and stir for a minute. Stir in tomatoes, breaking them into bite-size pieces and scraping browned bits from the pot. Add wine, chicken stock, vinegar and bay leaves and bring just to a boil.
- Return lamb to pot and reduce heat so mixture is bubbling very gently. Partly cover pot and cook, stirring every 20 minutes or so, until lamb is very tender, about 2 hours. Discard bay leaves. Stir in beans and cook another 10 minutes to heat them through. Stir in parsley and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

Steps:
- Make sure your lamb isn't too damp - pat it dry with kitchen paper if you need to, otherwise it won't colour well. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large casserole dish and brown the lamb over a high heat in batches (if you crowd the pan the meat will sweat and not brown). Remove with a slotted spoon as you go. When all the lamb is browned, add the remaining oil and cook the onion and peppers over a medium heat until the onion is golden and the vegetables are softened. Add the garlic and paprika, and cook for a further 1 min, then add the sherry and bring to a simmer.
- Put all the lamb back in the pan, along with the stock, saffron, sherry vinegar and honey. Season and bring to just under the boil. Turn the heat down, cover the pan and leave to cook very gently for 2 hrs, turning the meat every so often.
- In the last half hour of cooking time, remove the lid so that the sherry and stock can reduce. You want to end up with completely tender meat in a flavoursome gravy - how long this takes will depend on how wide your pan is so you may need to give it longer than 30 mins. Check the seasoning. You're unlikely to need to adjust the vinegar or honey but you might want to sweeten the dish slightly. Scatter the parsley or almonds on top (or use both). Serve with the couscous.

- In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and bacon. When the bacon begins to lightly brown, remove it from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add the lamb and let the meat brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the meat with a slotted spoon and set aside. Chop the bacon into 1/4-inch pieces. Add the mushrooms, carrots, garlic, onions and bacon to the pot and stir. Mix in the flour. Add the beef stock, sherry, bay leaves and lamb. Add salt and pepper and cover the pot but leave a vent for the steam to escape. Bring the mixture to a simmer and simmer until the meat is tender and falling apart, about 2 hours. Slowly stir in the heavy cream, parsley, tarragon and peas. Serve the stew in shallow bowls over buttered egg noodles.
HEARTY LAMB STEW WITH MUSHROOMS AND CARROTS
This recipe will feed 3-4 people, it can easily be doubled, and is best if prepared a day ahead, refrigerated and warmed the following day. I have made this stew many times, it is wonderful! Serve with hot cooked egg noodles. I like to add in some frozen peas also.

LAMB STEW WITH RED WINE AND MUSHROOMS
THIS RICH LAMB STEW is perfect for cold winter nights. It leaves out the traditional potato in favor of mushrooms and oregano, which provide a wonderful earthy flavor. A final twist comes in the addition of soy sauce, which intensifies the taste of this satisfying dish.
Yield serves 4 to 6
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
- Season the lamb with 1 teaspoon of the oregano and the garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or a heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb in two batches until deeply browned on two sides (about 4 minutes per side). Remove the browned lamb to a large bowl.
- Reduce the heat to medium heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the pot, along with the mushrooms and onions. Cover and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the onions from the pot and set aside. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oregano, the garlic, and 1 tablespoon of the rosemary. Cook and stir for about 1 minute, being careful not to brown the garlic. Add the soy sauce, wine, and chicken stock. Stir to deglaze the bottom of the pot. Increase the heat to high, bring to a boil, and return the lamb and any accumulated juices to the pot. Remove the pot from the heat, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and place in the oven.
- Bake for 1 hour, and then stir. Bake for an additional 45 minutes, remove from the oven, and test the lamb for tenderness by prodding it with a fork. If it is not tender, return it to the oven for 15 to 30 minutes. When the lamb is tender, add the reserved onions. Cover and return the pot to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- Before serving, stir in the remaining 1 teaspoon rosemary. Serve hot.
- The stew can be refrigerated for 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat in a covered saucepan over medium heat.
