This lamb stew is a huge winner with the entire family. Plus it’s uber easy to make in the slow cooker.
Ingredients
1 kilogram diced boneless lamb (I have it diced by my butcher in about 3 cm pieces)
1/2 cup plain flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Pepper to taste
1/2 cup liquid beef stock (125 ml)
3 carrots (chopped in thick slices)
3 potatoes (cut in even-ish cubes)
2 onions (cut into triangles or diced)
1 cup frozen peas
Method
- In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, sugar, thyme, pepper and garlic.
- Add the lamb cubes and toss through the flour mixture to coat all the meat well.
- Shake meat lightly to remove any excess flour mixture before placing into the slow cooker.
- Throw all the vegetables on top of the meat, expect for the peas (add them about 20 minutes before serving).
- Pour beef stock over vegetables and meat and mix lightly.
- Cook on low f0r 8-10 hours.
- About 20 minutes before serving, add peas and place lid back on the slow cooker.
- I serve with easy flat bread.
Variation
Use parsnips instead of potato.

August 13, 2014 at 7:57 amThanks Anne! I put the high/low around the wrong way. Ha! So it should be 8-10 hours on low.

July 27, 2018 at 4:02 pmThanks for the recipe 🙂 just want to confirm I don’t need to brown the lamb before putting in the slow cooker?
