Runner Bean Stew

You can make this stew with lamb or beef. For lamb, you can use cuts from the shoulder or from the rib, a favourite of mine – the chunks are carved into double cutlets, making two ribs for every portion. When nicely trimmed, it is not as fatty as the shoulder. If using lamb, some people will prefer to add ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon and 1 teaspoon of nutmeg to make it more tangy.
