Note

Do not overcook the cabbage; it should be tender but not mushy to retain some texture and color.

Optional Thickening: If you prefer a thicker gravy, brown 1 tablespoon of flour with a small spoonful of oil in a separate pan. Add a little chopped onion to the flour mixture, then stir this roux into the stew. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to thicken.

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of water if needed.

Substitutions: You can use ground beef or turkey instead of lamb for a milder flavor. Diced tomatoes can be used in place of whole tomatoes for easier preparation.
