Yield serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 pounds boneless lamb stew meat (preferably shoulder), trimmed of excess fat and cut into 2-inch cubes
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, such as safflower
2 1/4 cups water
1 large onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 1/2 cups (12 ounces) dark beer
1 1/2 pounds medium new potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 pound carrots, cut 1/2 inch thick diagonally
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, season flour with salt and pepper. Dredge lamb in flour mixture, shaking off excess. In a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot, heat oil over medium. Working in batches, brown lamb on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate.
  • Pour 1/4 cup water into pot and scrape up browned bits from bottom with a wooden spoon. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until water has evaporated and onion is beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Return lamb to pot; stir in thyme, beer, and 1 1/2 cups water. Cover; simmer until lamb is tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Add potatoes, carrots, and remaining 1/2 cup water. Cover and cook until vegetables are tender and stew has thickened, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in parsley and serve immediately.

  • Let stew cool completely, then transfer to airtight containers. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the microwave or overnight in the refrigerator and reheat over low. Stir in parsley just before serving.
