Love this recipe, it is delicious!! I used 2 cups chicken stock and 1/4 cup white wine, left out the parsnip and used a can of diced tomatoes as I couldn't find passata. Absolutely yummy and great with mashed potato, we even ate the left overs the next day tossed thru some pasta, I called it "penne with lamb ragu".

I made this recipe using left over lamb pieces (slow cooked whole lamb on the spit), it was beautiful & as the meat was previously cooked, it was lovely & tender once added back to the pot with the rest of the ingredients.

I made this recipe today and just tried a bowl. Simply delicious. I didn't have tomato paste or passata so I used tomato sauce and 1/4 cup red wine. It will definitely become a favourite. Thanks.

Hi Jem,

Passata is made from sieved, crushed/pureed tomatoes. It is usually sold in glass bottles. You could substitute canned tomato puree or finely crushed canned tomatoes.

could you use lamb rump for this recipe?

Hi,

this sounds great and I can't wait to try it.

Could someone please tell me what exactly "Passata" is - I don't think I can get it here (Canada); and how can I substitute it if neccessary?

Thanks.

Hi Debbie and Amanda,
Yes i had the stew covered the whole time and didn't even bother trying to reduce the heat as i had the stove(gas)as low as i possibly could. The meat was tender and the thick gravy was really nice. I added a 1/4 cup of red wine as well without reducing the stock. I happy with the result but was surprised to see that it hadn't taken that long to cook.
Thanks.

The cooking time required will depend on how tender the meat is to start with, and how rapidly the stew is simmered. Did you have the stew covered?

Hi Debbie and Amanda,
It was delicious and my son loved it. I didn't end up cooking for 2 and a 1/2 hrs, as the meat was tender and the liquid had reduced in 1 and 1/4. I used a very heavy based saucepan and had simmered for most the time.Do you think this might have made a difference?

Hi Chrissie,

We think that this recipe would be suitable for a slow cooker. You may need to reduce the quantity of liquid slightly. You could chop the vegetables into larger pieces if desired.

Hi Debbie and Amanda,
Could this recipe be cooked in a slow cooker? Also would it be a good idea to cut the vegetable into larger cubes? Thanks
