Ingredients needed to make Lamb, Sweet Potato and Mushroom Stew

Making the Lamb, Sweet Potato and Mushroom Stew

This stew is not difficult to make, but it does take some time. So, it’s a perfect dish to make on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

After you chop and sauté the lamb and veggies, the stew needs a good long simmer. This allows the deep, rich flavor to develop and the lamb to become fall-apart tender. While it simmers, you can curl up under a blanket and wait for the delicious aroma fill your house.

Make This Recipe Gluten-Free

To keep this gluten-free, I used garbanzo bean flour (because it’s what I had on hand). It worked really well to thicken the stew.

If you have another gluten-free flour on hand, feel free to use that. Or, if you’re not worried the stew being gluten-free, feel free to use regular flour.
