Lamb Stew

I have no recollection whatsoever of typing this recipe into the notes app on my phone many years ago, so I have no idea where it came from, but I just found it today. I do recall many years ago finding an absolutely perfect recipe in a Sheffield newspaper online but despite searching for it for many years, I could never find it again. I sure hope this was it…I can’t wait to try it out this winter.
