Basque Lamb Stew
A nutrient-rich twist on a traditional favourite, this Basque Lamb Stew is cooked using waterless cooking techniques to lock in natural flavours and preserve essential vitamins and minerals. Tender, lean lamb is gently simmered in its own juices with sweet bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, and aromatic herbs—no added water.
