Mediterranean Lamb Stew with tomato, mushroom and eggplant (Kokkinisto)

I used to order a delicious lamb stew at the New Kappadokia restaurant in Redwood City, California. Then I had a not quite but close to equally delicious stew at a Greek restaurant in Palo Alto that was called Kokkinisto. I pieced this recipe together based on the ingredients that I enjoyed in the two stews and some other highly rated online recipes. I think the result was remarkable, as did my guests. I hope you will try it!

Инструкции

  1. Chop the lamb into 3/4 inch pieces and brown in the bottom of a large pot over medium high heat with 2 tbsp olive oil - about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the additional 1 tbsp olive oil and the onions and saute for 3 minutes. Add the green pepper and garlic and saute for an additional minute.
  3. Add the eggplant, mushroom, tomatoes with juices, broth, and spices to the pot and bring to a boil. Lower to a light simmer and cook for 60-90 minutes until the lamb is softened and the sauce is rich. You can add a bit more water if two much of the liquid is released. Feel free to add a half a cup of red wine if you like the flavor. Check for seasoning and add more pepper or salt as needed.
  4. Enjoy over long grain rice or with a good loaf of dry peasant bread or pita bread.
