Deeply savory and warmly spiced, this lamb stew is the kind of slow-simmered comfort food that fills the whole kitchen with an irresistible aroma long before it hits the table. Bone-in lamb shoulder or leg is seared until deeply browned, then braised low and slow in bone broth until it practically falls apart at the touch of a spoon ā that fork-tender result is absolutely worth the wait. Ceylon cinnamon, turmeric, and ground ginger give the broth a subtle warmth that feels exotic without being overpowering, while golden cremini mushrooms, sweet carrots, and earthy parsnips round out every bowl with hearty, satisfying texture. A splash of apple cider vinegar lifts all those rich, caramelized flavors and keeps the stew from feeling heavy. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from pork and pork-derived products, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or swap anything out ā it's straightforwardly clean from start to finish. Serve it straight from the Dutch oven with a scatter of fresh parsley, and it's the kind of meal that tastes like it took far more effort than it actually did.

Pat the lamb pieces thoroughly dry with paper towels and season all over with 1 tsp fine sea salt.
Heat the coconut oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, add the lamb and sear undisturbed for 3ā4 minutes per side, until deeply browned on at least two surfaces. Transfer the seared lamb to a plate and set aside.
