🕒 Preparation time: 135 minutes 👨🍳 Difficulty: ★★☆☆☆
With a vegetable drawer full of leftovers and a “meat vending machine” with lamb around the corner, the choice was quickly made to make a nice stew. I live in the countryside and there are a lot of refrigerated vending machines at various farmers. Fresh meat directly from the farmer, or vegetables from the grower. Ideal and really very good quality. The peace and quiet of the countryside is sometimes not so bad. So get started with this zero waste spicy leg of lamb stew with vegetables. We dive into the herb drawer for some delicious fragrant herb mixes and in no time your kitchen will smell fantastic! Lamb is not for everyone, so if you really don't like it, use beef stew.
Lamb Stew with Berbere and Ras-El-Hanout | Easy Stew in 2 Hours
We season the lamb with berbere and ras-el-hanout, two mixes from North Africa that smell wonderful and give your stew a lot of flavor. So much so that I didn't use a herb bag with herbs like thyme or rosemary. They also give it a more European touch in terms of flavor. We serve it with bulgur, which is super quick and easy to make. This shows that you certainly shouldn't throw away food but can simply process everything very well in a delicious stew like this.

Ingredients for an Authentic Taste
Lamb is generally a bit more expensive than pork or beef. But I certainly find it so delicious to spend a bit more money on it every now and then! You don't have to buy kilos of meat, this substance contains 300 grams and that is more than enough for me to be able to eat very well for two days.
