Directions
-
Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and simmer until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the ground lamb to the pot. Cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through.
-
Season the meat with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Add the can of whole tomatoes, crushing them slightly with a spoon as they go in. Stir to combine with the meat.
-
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
-
Add the cut-up cabbage to the pot. Stir gently to submerge the cabbage in the tomato sauce.
-
If the mixture looks dry, add a small amount of boiling water to create a light sauce.
-
Cover and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender but not mushy.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot.

Note
Do not overcook the cabbage; it should retain a slight crunch for the best texture.
Optional Thickening: If you prefer a thicker gravy, brown 1 tablespoon of flour with a small spoonful of oil in a separate pan, then stir it into the stew along with a little chopped onion.
Storage: Let cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of water if needed.
Variation: Add diced carrots or potatoes with the cabbage for extra heartiness.
