Equipment

  • Dutch oven
  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds lamb shoulder cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 medium turnips peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour optional, for thickening

Instructions

  • Preheat your Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
  • Brown the lamb cubes in batches, ensuring they get a nice sear on all sides. Remove the lamb and set aside.
  • In the same Dutch oven, add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the tomato paste and let it cook for a couple of minutes.
  • Return the browned lamb to the pot and add the chopped turnips.
  • Pour in the beef broth, ensuring that the meat and vegetables are well-covered.
  • Add the rosemary sprigs, salt, and pepper, and bring the stew to a simmer.
  • Once simmering, reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, and let it cook for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the lamb is tender.
  • If you desire a thicker stew, sprinkle the almond flour over the stew and stir well to combine. Allow to simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes to thicken.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.

Notes

For best results, use grass-fed lamb for a richer flavor and health benefits.
The stew can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
If you're not on a strict keto diet, you can substitute almond flour with a roux made from butter and regular flour for thickening.
