Spring Lamb Stew
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- 1-1/2 pound Leg Of Lamb, Cubed
- 4 Tablespoons Flour
- 1 teaspoon Oregano
- 1 teaspoon Thyme
- 1/2 teaspoons Rosemary
- 2 whole Bay Leaves
- 1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
- 1 cup Red Wine
- 6 cups Chicken Broth
- 3/4 cups Kamut
- 1/2 cups Small Diced Carrots
- 1 cup Small Diced Turnips
- 1 cup Frozen Pearl Onions
- 1 cup Small Diced Asparagus
- 1 cup Frozen Peas
- 2 cups Fresh Spinach
- 1 Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
- For this recipe I recommend using a Dutch oven. There's something about meat cooking for an hour or two in a Dutch oven that results in amazingly tender and flavorful meat, but if you don't have a Dutch oven, this recipe can be made on the stovetop in a large, covered pot.
- Preheat oven to 325u0b0F. Melt butter in Dutch oven. Coat lamb cubes in flour and brown on each side, about 5 minutes. Add herbs and garlic and cook for 1 more minute, then add red wine and simmer for 3 minutes.
- Add chicken broth and kamut, cover, and place in a 325u0b0F oven and cook for 30 minutes. If you don't have a Dutch oven, simply simmer stew on stovetop over medium-low heat.
- After 30 minutes have passed, add carrots, turnips, and pearled onions, then return to the oven. Cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour, checking on the stew and stirring every 15 minutes. It's finished once lamb is beginning to fall apart and kamut has a popped appearance.
- Once kamut and lamb are done cooking, add remaining vegetables to pot and return to the oven for 5 minutes. Stir in balsamic vinegar before serving.
