Instructions: 1. In a large heavy saucepan, heat 1/2 of the oil. Add 1/2 of the lamb or beef and cook until well browned on one side, 5-7 min. Stir and cook 1 minute
longer; remove meat and set aside. Add the remaining oil the lamb (or beef) and the chopped onion to the pan and cook until browned, about 8-10 min.

Return the first batch of meat to the pan.

lower heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour.

tender, 30-40 minutes.

4. To thicken stew, add cornstarch to 1/4 cup cold water in a small bowl; stir until smooth. Add to simmering stew; stir gently until thickened.

Garnish with parsley; serve with bread.
