Long, slow braising lamb stews can be found throughout tables in Andalusia, Spain especially come springtime. Often, these stews are accompanied by young potatoes for soaking up all that delicious stewing liquid. We’ve adapted this recipe slightly from traditional versions so that the potatoes cook directly in the stew to absorb all the flavors of the lamb. We like lamb shanks best for this recipe, as the bones help to give body and flavor to the stew, but you can also use lamb stew meat. Ask your butcher to cut the lamb shanks into pieces for you.
