Step by step
Get ahead
The stew can be frozen for up to 2 months.
- Preheat the oven to 150°C, fan 130°C, gas 2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Brown the lamb in batches until each piece is well coloured. Take your time – you will be able to taste the extra layer of flavour. Remove the lamb from the pan and set aside as it is done.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the frying pan and fry the onion for 3-4 minutes until beginning to caramelise. Add the garlic and continue to fry for a minute. Pour over the white wine and allow it to reduce by two-thirds, so the liquid has almost disappeared.
- Transfer the lamb, onions, garlic and reduced wine into a 2-litre casserole. Stir through the tomato purée, vinegar and hot stock. Add the rosemary sprig; season generously. Cover and cook in the oven for 2 hours.
- Remove the lid and stir through the cannellini beans. Replace the lid and cook for just 15 minutes longer. Remove the stew from the oven and allow to cool completely. Discard the rosemary sprig.
- Transfer to freezer bags, label and freeze.
- When ready to serve, defrost for 24 hours in the fridge; reheat for about 20 minutes in a lidded pan, adding 100ml water, until bubbling. Stir through the artichokes and sunsoaked tomatoes until they're heated through.
- Serve garnished with chopped parsley.
