Mutton & Barley Stew

Recipe – Mutton & Barley Stew

Serves: 4–6
Time: 2 hours

Ingredients

2 Tbsp Traditional Table mutton tallow

500g stewing mutton pieces

1 onion, chopped

2 carrots, chopped

1 celery stick, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp dried thyme

1 cup pearl barley

4 cups beef or bone broth

Salt and pepper to taste

Method

In a large pot, melt the mutton tallow. Brown the mutton pieces and set aside.

In the same pot, sauté onion, garlic, carrots, and celery until softened.

Stir in the thyme, barley, broth, and return the browned meat.

Cover and simmer for 1.5–2 hours, until barley is tender and flavours are deep.

Season to taste and serve warm — ideally with a slice of crusty sourdough.

Nourishment like your grandmother made — rooted in real food, real fats, and slow cooking.
