Ingredients:
1 kilo lamb forequarter chops
4 large potatoes, peeled and roughly diced
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup of soup mix (pearl barley, split peas, lentils, yellow lentils)
2 large carrots sliced
3 cloves garlic
handful, finely chopped parsley
4 cups water and extra water for pot
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon beef stock powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, quartered and sliced
1/4 cup plain flour
1 tablespoon soy sauce
Directions:
1. In a fry pan or large heavy based pot, place the chops, garlic and onion into pan with the olive oil and fry on a medium heat till meat is browned and the onion is softened.
2. While frying the chops and onion and garlic, in a large jug, combine parsley, 4 cups water, beef stock powder, soy sauce, and flour and set aside.
3. Place potaotes, soup mix, and carrots into frying pan and added combined beef stock and soy mixture to the pan, adding your salt and pepper to taste. If the beef stock mixture has not covered the ingredients in the pan, add the extra water to cover all ingredients in the pan.
4. Bring frying pan or pot to a high heat and boil all ingredients for about 3 minutes and then reduce to a low heat and cook, covered, stirring through ingredients occasionally - until meat starts to fall off the bones and all ingredients are cooked through and tender, Just before serving, add frozen peas and heat them through.
5. Serve with mashed potaotes and crusty bread or plain steamed/boiled rice.
6. For something a little different - try adding a smidge of tomato paste. If you like a really thick stew, remove lid and cook supervised and stir through until mixture thickens
