White Lamb Stew

What it is
A clear and savory lamb stew, distinct from tomato-based stews. Lamb chunks (often bone-in) are slow-cooked with minimal ingredients such as onions, garlic, and a selection of white spices like cardamom, bay leaves, and black peppercorns, resulting in a rich, aromatic broth.
Key ingredients
Lamb chunks (bone-in), onions, garlic, ghee or olive oil, bay leaves, green cardamom pods, black peppercorns, salt, water or bone broth.
Optional tweaks
Crucially, confirm no high-carb root vegetables like potatoes or carrots are included. Ensure no flour-based thickeners are used.
Watch out for
Onions and garlic contribute minor carbs. Some restaurants might include a few pieces of potato, which must be removed.
