Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Heat olive oil in a pressure cooker over medium heat. Add the lamb cubes and brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. This step develops a rich, savory base for the stew.

02

Step
2 mins

Pour in 2 cups of water, then stir in the pureed corn, chicken soup base, bay leaf, marjoram, parsley, chives, allspice, salt, and pepper. Ensure all ingredients are well combined. (2 minutes)

03

Step
25 mins

Seal the pressure cooker and bring to full pressure over medium-high heat. Once at full pressure, reduce the heat to medium-low to maintain consistent pressure and cook for 25 minutes. The pressure cooking tenderizes the lamb beautifully.

04

Step
1 mins

Carefully release the pressure from the cooker according to the manufacturer's instructions. (5 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Open the lid and add the remaining 2 cups of water, potatoes, carrots, and onion to the lamb mixture. (3 minutes)

06

Step
8 mins

Reseal the pressure cooker and bring back to full pressure over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for an additional 8 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.(8 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider searing the lamb in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot.
Adjust seasoning to taste after the stew is cooked. A squeeze of lemon juice can brighten the flavors.
If you don't have a pressure cooker, you can simmer the stew in a Dutch oven for about 2-2.5 hours, or until the lamb is very tender.
Fresh herbs can be used in place of dried; use about 3 times the amount.
Serve hot with a crusty bread to soak up the delicious broth.

    My family loved it! I added a bit of rosemary, which complemented the other herbs nicely.

    So quick and easy for a weeknight meal! The lamb was incredibly tender.

    I used vegetable broth instead of water, and it added even more flavor.

  • Forrest Kemmer

    I doubled the recipe and froze half for later. It reheated beautifully.

  • Kristopher Berge

    I was skeptical about the corn, but it was amazing! Gave the stew a lovely sweetness.

  • Akeem Hermiston

    The corn puree is genius! I'll definitely be making this again.

  • Leanne Carter

    I didn't have a pressure cooker, so I simmered it on the stovetop for about 2 hours. Still turned out great!
