On a raw winter’s night, sometimes you just want stew. Here’s one with no potatoes and you can make it in your big frying pan.
Ingredients
3 tbsp olive oil
650 g lean stewing lamb, cut into chunks
100 g chopped onion
250 g diced turnip
250 g diced swede
200 ml beef stock
½ tsp guar or xanthan
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
3 cloves garlic, crushed
Method
1. Put the oil in a heavy frying pan over medium-high heat and brown the lamb in the oil. Add the onion, turnip and swede.
2. Put the beef stock and guar in a blender and blend for a few moments. Pour the mixture into the frying pan. (If you choose not to use a thickener, just add the stock directly to the pan.) Add the salt, pepper, bay leaf and garlic, and stir.
3. Cover, turn the heat down to low and let simmer for 1 hour.
