1/2 pound common mushrooms
1/2 pound fresh shiitake mushrooms (or more common mushrooms)
3/4 pound onions, peeled and coarsely chopped
1 cup thinly sliced carrots

1 cup dry red wine
3 tablespoons minced fresh basil leaves

5 whole cloves
1 package (10 oz.) frozen peas

Directions:
1. In a 6-quart pressure cooker over high heat, frequently stir lamb until browned, about 15 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer lamb to a bowl.
2. Meanwhile, rinse common mushrooms, trim stem ends, and quarter mushrooms. Rinse shiitakes, discard stems, and slice caps.
