Tips/Tricks

*when cooking lamb don’t crowd the pan, best to cook in batches. If you put too much in the pan it won’t get a nice sear on it and will just look grey*
**to test if dumplings are cooked stick a skewer in them, the skewer should come out clean**
***if making dumplings for something different you can cook them in just a saucepan of stock***
****the stew will keep in the fridge for 3 – 4 days. When reheating it do so on a low heat with a lid on. The steam will moisten up the dumplings again****
*****stew freezes great, just follow the instructions above to reheat it*****
