Best lamb stew I've ever had! Lamb stew is one of my favorite dishes but I had never made it myself because I thought I'd never be able to match the great stews I've had in the past. Well, I tried this recipe and I'll definitely, and with confidence, be making it again! Only changes I made was using turkey bacon instead of beef and in a smaller amount than recommended for the bacon, I used fresh thyme and a thinly sliced celery stalk, added a bottle of Guinness stout beer (as another reviewer had recommended), and stirred in fresh parsley at the end. The stew was truly superb, I can't believe I'm saying this about my own cooking but I don't think a fine restaurant can do better than I did with this one!!! The only thing I might change next time is the amount of lamb--I was making four servings and two-and-a-half pounds was a bit too much meat for us, but that of course is a matter of preference. Next time I make four servings I'll probably just use a pound or so of the lamb.
