Aromatic Lamb-Shank Stew with Couscous
I love it when a man cooks.
DH prefers cooking outdoors with a grill and a smoker, but he does have an indoor cooking repertoire. He's been known to make killer chocolate souffles, deliciously fluffy buttermilk pancakes (thanks to a sockdoc recipe), amazing latkes and Cincinnati chili--the last two his mother's recipes.
He also does stews very well. On one of the recent--and too many of late--cold, wet and rainy evenings, he made Nigella Lawson's aromatic lamb-shank stew with lentils served atop couscous. It was the perfect comfort meal.
The only downside is having to clean up after him in the kitchen. :)

Oh, that looks delicious! (If I liked lamb, which I don't, which is unfortunate because the whole family I married into loves lamb).
But a man that cooks is a great treat!
Thanks for the hip flask idea. I'm liking that one a lot - it made me laugh.
and no, I have not started that stupid sweater yet. I WILL. I WILL!
I'm with Rani. It looks delicious, but I don't like lamb :( But let him know I'm up for chocolate souffles anytime!!!
Happy weekend!
that sounds great.... I think I might have to give that a go.
Stumbled to your blog via Rani. I'm all with you on the spinning wheel, it's so soothing.
OMG but that looks DEEE-LISH! I used to not like lamb and thought it was 'gamey' but as I've gotten older, I find that some are more or less so than others and have really acquired a taste for it!-ESPECIALLY with the curries to offset the flavor!
Yum! I'd be more than happy to clean up if someone made me that. Since I do all the cooking and cleaning up it would, in fact, be a huge treat.
Really I'd be happy if I cooked it and cleaned it up myself and just didn't have to listen to whining all through dinner about how the kids don't want to eat it.
