Flavor-licious Home-cooked Comfort Food!

This was such a pleasure for me and my honey to eat over several days. The flavor developed beautifully and the meat became so tender. I also kept just a few of the fatty and chewy pieces of the meat instead of throwing them away, but that's my preference for the texture and I love the flavor of fat. Indeed, I had to cut the recipe down 25% for just the two of us. I also added more carrots for color and flavor. Game plan for next-time: Add more carrots, cauliflower & some green beans, and cut back on the pasta. That way you can get your veggies in. A great all in one dish! Thanks Nigella!
really easy and delicious!

I made this stew with Beef Chuck roast, cut into cubes (about 3.5 lbs--sized down the rest of the recipe accordingly)--the only other change I made was to dust the meat with flour before browning it. This is such good comfort food! The feta adds a nice note. When I see lamb on sale, I'll try it that way, too! This is a new favorite...
too much pasta

The flavor was so great I just regret that i didn't folow the direction and I put too much pasta in it. Also I think I will pour the stew over pasta per serving...so it will last longer. YUM YUM
Delicious contrast

I am not a big fan of lamb, but this stew was a delight in every way. I halved the recipe (I made it for 2) and had great success. The trick is NOT to underestimate the herbed feta upon serving. The cheese and basil or parsley really provide fantastic flavor, and I cooked my noodles in the stew rather than beforehand. This is formal enough to serve to guests. I will be making it again!
Great weekend dish!

My family loved this!! We substituted beef for lamb, but it still tasted very flavorful. The feta is a nice touch.
Warm and Soothing.....Yummy!

This stew was such a wonderful melding of flavors! I could hardly believe that I made this myself. Even the 'non-lamb' eaters in the household had to admit that they liked this stew. We had a taste when the carrots were done because we couldn't wait and then when I finished it with the pasta the next day it was even better. I used Ditali, the small thimble pasta and I only used a cupful because some of the people in my house don't like a pasta laden stew. I added more pasta to my own bowl. It was very fresh and earthy. and I definitely will make this dish again.
