The original recipe here called for rutabagas, but I changed it to potatoes and added herbs.

I took note of ""Sunday""s review and, because we are fans of stronger flavours, I modified this a bit. Instead of water I used 1 cup of vegetable broth and 1 cup of white wine. I also added two cloves of crushed garlic. I made this on the stovetop as it was a last minute decision. I will definitely be making this again, especially when lamb is available in our office. Thanks for posting!

    I hate to say this because it did smell soo good, but it was rather bland. I have no idea as to why though because I used the bone as well! I am rather disappointed, but I would like to try it again with some replacements like chicken broth...maybe white wine....we'll see, then I will update!

    A hearty and heart warming stew, home style cooking at its best! I used half potatoes and half rutabega. I cooked it in a dutch oven in the oven at 350°F for 1 1/2 hours. By the time I found the lamb I wanted it was too late for the crockpot. Apparently, lamb is not in great demand here, so the regular markets stock only a small supply. I loved the lamb, rutabega and rosemary combination. The gravy was bread dipping delicious and the lamb and vegetables were fork tender. Thanks Mirjam, this will be a staple at our house.
