Instructions: Put the ingredients together in a pan and cook a hearty stew.

The name of the dish comes from the fact that the cumin seeds jump like fleas in the pan when the stew is cooked.

It is said that a local patriot from Kassel (where the dish originated)

has mentioned the suspicion, that some Irish people brought it to Ireland and made it famous as Irish Stew.
