Ingredients:
2 lbs boneless lamb shoulder, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp dried thyme
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
4 cups chicken broth
2 lbs potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 lb carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch coins
6 stalks celery, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Directions:
1. Combine the lamb, parsley, thyme, salt, pepper, and 3 cups broth in a large saucepan and simmer covered over moderate heat for 90 minutes.
2. Add the potatoes, onion, carrots, celery, and remaining broth and simmer, covered, 1 hour.
3. In a small bowl whisk together the flour and oil until smooth and stir into simmering stew until mixed well.
4. Simmer uncovered 3 to 5 minutes, until thickened.
5. Serve with Irish Soda Bread, a green salad and Guinness!
