RE: [realfood] Delphi Irish Stew

From Wikipedia.

The rutabaga, swede (from Swedish turnip), or yellow turnip (Brassica napobrassica, or Brassica napus var. napobrassica) is a root vegetable that originated as a cross between the cabbage and the turnip. Its leaves can also be eaten as a leaf vegetable.

It is a favorite of mine in New England Boiled Dinner also.

Delphi Irish Stew

INGREDIENTS:

1-1/2 pounds Shoulder of Lamb (cubed)

3 whole carrots, rough chopped

1 rutabaga, rough chopped

1 turnip, rough chopped

1 onion

3-1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil

6 medium potatoes

1 sprigs of fresh rosemary

Pinch of salt

Pinch of pepper

6 cups water

2 pounds potatoes (mashed)

METHOD:

Peel and cut onion into large dice. Place large pot over high heat and add oil.

Place lamb and onion into pot and sauté for 8 to 10 minutes. Add
carrot, rutabaga and turnip. Season with salt and pepper, add rosemary,
and then cover with water.

Bring to the boil and simmer for 20 minutes.

In the meantime peel the medium potatoes and cut into quarters.

Cook the other 2 pounds of potatoes in boiling water until tender to make mashed potatoes, about 20 minutes.

Now add potato quarters to the vegetables and lamb and cook for another 20 minutes or until potatoes are cooked.

Finally stir in the mashed potatoes. Your stew is now ready.

Serve in large bowl.
