Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the Lamb

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed lamb and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, sliced carrots, and chopped celery to the pot. Sauté for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 3

    Add Liquids and Simmer

    Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce. Stir to combine and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, covered, for about 1.5 to 2 hours until the lamb is tender.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Noodles and Mushrooms

    In the last 30 minutes of cooking, soak the cellophane noodles in hot water for about 15 minutes. Rinse the dried lily flowers and wood ear mushrooms, then add them to the stew.

  5. 5

    Add Noodles and Final Seasoning

    Add the soaked cellophane noodles to the stew and stir gently. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the stew into bowls, top with crumbled flatbread and garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
