Directions
-
Black pepper Parsley; to finish *Note: Neck of mutton may be either whole or in chops (use lamb only if you have to).
-
Start to cook this dish the day before serving.
-
Boil the neck of mutton in a large covered pan in 2-1/2 pints lightly salted water for 2 hours (or more if the meat needs it).
-
Skim off all the scum and the excess fat as it rises to the surface of the water.
-
Take out the meet when it is tender.
-
Put in the barley and leave it soaking in the stock overnight.
-
Next day, bring the stock and barley back to the boil.
-
Prepare and dice all the vegetables except the leeks to the stock and cook for another 60 minutes.
-
Add the leeks, cut into fine rings, 10 minutes before the end of cooking.
-
If you want to have the meat in the stew, strip it off the bones,
-
cut into small pieces and return it to the soup before reheating thoroughly.
-
Put a tablespoon of parsley in each plate, and pour in the soup.
-
If you prefer a two-dish meal,
-
serve the meat as a main course afterwards with potatoes - Golden Wonder are Chrissie's preferred variety.
-
Bake the potatoes if they are mature.
-
Or boil them in their jackets if they are new.
-
For really fluffy, floury boiled potatoes, Chrissie cooks hers whole and unpeeled (never
-
cut a Golden Wonder) for 12-15 minutes, depending on average size.
-
drain out all but a little of the water, lid the pan tightly and steam the potatoes for another 10 or 15 minutes, shaking regularly, until they are dry and floury in texture.
