Peanut Free Cranberry-Orange Lamb Stew

Warm, deeply aromatic, and built on a genuinely surprising flavor combination, this lamb stew brings together tart cranberries, bright orange juice, and earthy spices in a way that feels both rustic and a little special. The Ceylon cinnamon and turmeric bloom in the pot before the braising liquid goes in, giving the whole dish a golden, fragrant depth that builds over a long, slow simmer. Bone broth and a splash of apple cider vinegar round out the base, while carrots and parsnips soak up all that savory-sweet braising liquid as they turn perfectly tender. The lamb shoulder itself gets a proper sear first, which locks in richness and gives the finished stew that satisfying, fork-tender pull you want from a long braise. Every ingredient here is naturally free from peanuts and peanut-derived oils — coconut oil handles the searing, and there are no sauces or pastes that typically sneak in hidden legume ingredients. It's the kind of one-pot meal that makes the whole kitchen smell incredible and tastes even better ladled into a deep bowl with a scatter of fresh parsley on top.
