Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless lamb shoulder, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds Jerusalem artichokes (about 15 small), peeled, cut into 3/4-inch cubes, and reserved in cold water (drain and pat dry before using)
2 cups coarsely chopped onion (about 1 large)
2 garlic cloves, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger (1-inch piece)
1 whole cinnamon stick
2 whole cloves
2 green cardamom pods, lightly crushed
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 35-ounce can whole peeled plum tomatoes with juice
1 cup homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock
1/8 teaspoon crumbled saffron threads
1 10-ounce jar small caperberries, drained
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Season the lamb with salt and black pepper; brown the meat (in batches, if necessary) on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Cook the artichokes in the remaining tablespoon oil in the same pot over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until well browned on all sides, about 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the artichokes to a separate bowl.
  • Add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the remaining oil in the pot; sauté over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and red pepper flakes; cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and juice, stock, saffron, and 1 teaspoon salt. Using the side of a wooden spoon, break up the tomatoes. Add the reserved lamb; bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover, and simmer until the meat is tender, about 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Select high-quality lamb: Choose lamb shoulder or leg for a tender and flavorful stew. Look for meat that is bright red and free of any excessive fat.
  • Brown the lamb before stewing: This step adds depth of flavor and color to the stew. Be sure to brown the lamb in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and steaming the meat.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for Jerusalem artichokes, but you can also use other root vegetables such as carrots, parsnips, or turnips. For a more hearty stew, add some potatoes or barley.
  • Don't overcook the stew: Lamb stew is best when it is cooked until the meat is tender but not falling apart. Overcooked lamb can become tough and dry.
  • Serve with crusty bread or mashed potatoes: Lamb stew is a hearty and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. Serve it with crusty bread or mashed potatoes to soak up all the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

This lamb stew with Jerusalem artichokes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a family meal. The lamb is tender and flavorful, and the Jerusalem artichokes add a unique and earthy flavor. This stew is also a great way to use up any leftover lamb from a roast or leg of lamb. Serve it with crusty bread or mashed potatoes for a complete and satisfying meal.
