Romania: Tokana (Shepherd's Stew)
Ingredients:
- 1 kg Lamb, off the bone
- 500 g Onions
- 1 l Water
- Salt and black pepper
- 2 Bayleaves (or 3)
- 1 kg Potatoes
- 150 ml Sour cream
- 1 T Vinegar
Instructions:
Cube the meat and trim off the fat. (Save the fat.) Peel and slice
the onions. Render the fat trimmings in a casserole or saucepan.
Take out the 'scratchings' left after rendering and add the meat and
onions. Fry until well browned. Add the water, salt and pepper, and
the bay leaves. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1
hour.
Peel and slice the potatoes and add them to the stew. Simmer for
another 30 minutes. After about 20 minutes of this time, remove the
lid to allow the liquid to reduce. When the potatoes are soft, stir
in the sour cream and vinegar: remove from heat. Serve with good
bread.
Yield: 4 servings
