    Ah - the domestic goddess strikes again. Nigella's recipes are always crowd pleasers and this one is particularly delicious on a cold winter's night. Whatever you do, don't skip the feta cheese - it's vital. Enjoy.

    All of my family members give this recipe a BIG thumbs up! I cooked one night before and let it set in the refrigerator over night! So yummy! Even my 4 year old asked me to cook it again!

    Made this recipe as written. Nothing to write home about or serve to guests.

    Made this for company today and everyone LOVED it. I cooked the meat night before and let it sit in fridge overnight. Added more carrot and left them in the stew; used a little less pasta. Taste and add S&P before serving. DEEELISH!!! Don't forget the feta which tossed with all three herbs.

    Made this recipe with beef instead of lamb since my wife won't eat lamb. Also didn't add the wine since I didn't have it on hand. I used a splash of red wine vinegar for the acidity that would have come from the wine. Used fresh mint as the herb instead of basil or oregano. This dish is fabulous!

    This lamb stew has become an entertaining favorite in our household. You make it a day ahead so that the flavors meld and simply re-heat the day of serving. It makes fantastic leftovers as well. My husband, who is Greek, adores this dish. When my brother-in-law travelled from Greece last year with two male friends, I served this stew. They all raved about it, saying that it was better than what is served in Greece, and they all requested it for lunch the next day! A+++++ recipe, Nigella!

    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!

    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...

    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
