How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Heat a large frying pan and saute the onion in 1 tablespoon of the butter, covered, until very tender. Use low heat so that the onion and butter are not browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
|
2. Heat the pan again and brown the lamb over high heat with another tablespoon of the butter. You will probably need to do this in two batches. Set aside.
|
3. Place the sauteed onions, along with the remaining butter, in a heavy 6-quart saucepan. Add the Berbere Sauce, cumin, cardamom, ginger, garlic, black pepper, and wine.
|
4. Bring to a simmer and add the lamb. Bring to a simmer again and add the water. Cook, covered, until the lamb is very tender, about 50 minutes. Stir several times.
|
5. If the sauce is not thick enough, cook uncovered for a few minutes to reduce and thicken the sauce.
|
6. Add salt to taste and serve.
