Lamb, potato and pearl barley stew
Item 1 of 1
This rustic lamb stew dish from William Drabble is a great recipe for exploring a less common cut of the meat: lamb neck - which is often underrated. Lamb neck has a richer flavour than lamb shanks, allowing it to stand up better to slow cooking in this simple, hearty dish.
