INSTRUCTIONS
1.In a heavy pot or Dutch oven, heat oil. Coat lamb meat with flour and
brown in oil on all sides. Remove meat from pot.
2.In hot pot add onions, garlic, and thyme. Saut. until onions are soft.
3.Return browned meat to the pot, adding potatoes, bay leaf, wine and
stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to the lowest possible point, cover
tightly and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, or until meat is fork tender. Correct
seasoning with salt and fresh ground black pepper. Chefs Secret: The key to
making a great stew is keeping the pot covered. Don't keep opening the pot.
Check and stir the stew every 35 minutes or so to make sure there is enough
liquid. Add water or stock as needed.
