LEFTOVER LEG OF LAMB STEW



Leftover Leg of Lamb Stew image

Comfort food at it's best! This is a great way to stretch that leftover lamb into a second meal. Smells DEVINE cooking. My hubby doesn't care much for leg of lamb - but tolerates it on occassion since the rest of us love it. He didn't even realize this was lamb - and he LOVED it! This would also work wonderful in a slow cooker / crock pot.

LEFTOVER LEG OF LAMB & RED POTATO STEW



Leftover Leg of Lamb & Red Potato Stew image

No sense in wasting a good leg of lamb roast with the bones. This is a hearty-very flavorful stew. Marinating the roast overnight prior to cooking it makes a world of difference.

Categories     Stew

Time 10h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 lbs cooked leg of lamb, roast-leftovers with bone & juices (approx 1 lb of meat)
1 (16 ounce) bag frozen mixed vegetables (corn,green beans,peas)
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes, chopped
4 cups cubed red potatoes, with skin on
4 cups chopped cabbage
1 cup chopped sweet onion
4 cups water (more or less)
2 tablespoons johny's au jus sauce (adj to taste)
1 tablespoon fresh coarse ground black pepper (adj to taste)
1 tablespoon seasoning salt (adj to taste)
1 tablespoon garlic salt (adj to taste)
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes

Steps:

  • I use an overnight marinade for my roast. There are several on this site to pick from. I cook per recipe #600948 High Altitude Lamb. I have all the seasonings in the marinade that are listed in this, so I only add the slivers of garlic. Reserve the juices and freeze for use in the stew. After a few meals of the roast, I throw the leftover in the freezer until I want to make some stew.
  • In a crock pot, combine all ingredients. Amount of vegetables can be adjusted. I state 4 cups of water, I add enough water to slightly cover the ingredients. Cover & cook on high for a few hours then turn on low and cook for about 8-10 more hours. I find with stew, the longer you cook it the thicker it gets. (If you prefer a thick stew, you can flour your lamb prior to placing in crock pot too.) All ingredients are adjustable to your taste.
  • Prep time and cooking time do not include the cooking of the roast.

LAMB STEW / POT PIE FOR LEFTOVER LEG OF LAMB



Lamb Stew / Pot Pie for Leftover Leg of Lamb image

I wanted to make the most of my leg of lamb after having Roasted Lamb with Potato, Onion and Tomato Gratin which was great. I had about 3 cups of lamb left and the bone. This is what I created. This recipe is open to a lot of changes and preferences but will give the inexperienced cook a good idea as to how to make that leftover lamb into two more great meals.
