I usually make lamb stew each week, but normally I just throw frozen veggies and frozen lamb into a crockpot and let it run overnight. Decent results, very little effort.
Today, I opted to thaw the lamb and sear it first, and then put the seared lamb into an already rolling stove pot. Still used frozen veggies, but threw in some diced potatoes to thicken it up and also some fresh mushrooms because mushrooms are fucking cool.
Whole thing was done and packed into containers in thirty minutes. Having a bowl and a Stone IPA right now.
Lesson learned, you gotta peel the potatoes. Otherwise some of the potatoes disintegrate in the heat and your are left with some potato-free skins, which does not for an appetizing dinner make.
