Ingredients:
3 lbsBoneless lamb stew meat
6 tbspOlive oil
1 cupDiced onions
1 Carrot, peeled and sliced
1 tbspMinced garlic
1 can(28 oz) crushed tomatoes
1/2 tspThyme
1/2 tspRosemary
1 tspSalt
1/4 tspPepper
2 tbspMinced parsley
1 cupDry red wine
2 cupBeef stock
3 cupCooked Great Northern beans
Procedures:
1Heat the oven to 350°F.
2Trim the meat of visible fat and gristle, and set aside.
3Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a skillet over medium high heat.
4Add the lamb and brown on all sides, being careful not to crowd the pan; this will have to be done in batches.
5Remove the lamb with a slotted spoon, and place it in an oven-proof casserole.
6Add the remaining fat to the pan, and saute the onions, carrot and garlic, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
7Scrape the mixture into the casserole with the lamb.
8Add the tomatoes, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, parsley, wine and stock to the pan, and bring to a boil over medium high heat.
9Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake for 2 ?hours, or until the lamb is beginning to become tender.
10Add the beans, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes.
11Serves 6 to (the stew is even better if made a day or two in advance and refrigerated tightly covered.
12Discard any fat that hardens).
13Reheat in a 350f oven, stirring occasionally but gently
