A really tasty dinner. I used what I had on hand so I changed white wine to red wine and used vegetable stock. Also I couldn't get any tiny potatoes so I used larger ones cut into quarters. I also substited fresh tomatoes for canned. It turned out great and the sauce was so delicious!
I served this with steamed sliced zucchini.

A delicious and different flavor combination for lamb. Instead of making the usual Shepherds Pie with leftover lamb, I halved this recipe, used leftover gravy instead of stock and cut up russet potatoes. I cooked the stew in a cast iron dutch oven for 45 minutes and didn't need to reduce the cooking juices.I substituted fresh grated Romano cheese.
I will make the original recipe but I think I will dredge the lamb in flour and brown it in the oil to avoid having to reduce the sauce.
If you like lamb, you will love this dish.

Very tasty recipe. I used cooked leftover roast leg of lamb, which worked quite well without even modifying the cook time. The only other substitution was a can of diced tomatos as fresh aren't in season yet. I think I like this better than the original roast!

I made this for a wedding, 150 people, and served it over egg noodles. Many, many complements. Fantastic recipe.

I made this for dinner last night and was not dissappointed. I used my creuset oven casserole (cast iron) so had no need to thicken the sauce. It was lovely, flavourful and thick. I too, used canned tomatoes as I did not have any fresh ones. I also used baby red potatoes as we don't get pink ones here, wasn't sure whether I should peel them or not, so didn't and it was fine. I did flour, season, and brown the lamb cubes first in a little butter and olive oil. I used neck of lamb. This was a very delicious stew and the crumb topping was an extra special touch! Thanks Jan, I know I will make this again!

I really think draining off and then reducing the liquid is an important step in the recipe. Although it would be easier to just to thicken it, I don't think you would get the same intense flavours that you do with a reduction.
