I remember having an old dish my mother made when i was younger, it was made with Lamb chops (target chops to be detailed) and it was oven cooked like a casserole in a gravy like liquid with onions.
Its killing me I cant find it on the net or any old recipe books. My mum has dimentia and obviosly cannot remember the name or how to cook it. apparently one guy at work remembers his grandmother cooking it but she has passed on now. Any budding Jamie Olivers out there or any ones family member cooked this for them and be able to help me identify this dish for me??

its most definitely irish stew... my mum still makes it sometimes... the chops stew so long they are so tender and the meat practically just falls off the bone
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_stew theres a decent picture there although that one looks very plain |

I remember my mum making this too and she always called it Braised chops. I cook it every now and then.
My Nonna used to make it similar but with tomato's and herbs...yum! Now I am hungry!

braised chops/irish stew, depends where you come from i guess, the method used in irish stew is to braise the chops meaning to cook slowly with a lot of heat and moisture, thats why you use so much water and stuff
edit = ok mum just told me the difference is that you use flour in irish stew to make all the gravy and stuff much thicker Last edited by Stattic; 23-01-2009 at 04:29 PM. |

Braised chops tend to be done in a skillet on the cooktop.
Casserole tends to be oven baked. This is an old one my grandma made: 1 clove garlic 1 onion 4 shallots tablespoon chopped parsley flour fat or oil salt and pepper 4 chump or shoulder chops vegetables of choice cup of plonk rub chops with garlic clove, flour them and sprinkle salt and pepper over. fry lightly in fat until browned off slightly fry onions and shallots throw chops, veggies and parsley into a casserole dish and cover with wine cook in oven at about 180°C for about an hour This is another method she used: flour up a lb of chops and throw them in a casserole dish along with a couple of diced bacon slices, chopped onion, celery, a pinch of all spice, chopped potatoes, chopped carrots, salt and pepper and 1 1/2 cups of chicken stock and cook the lot at 130°C for two hours. |

Braised means pre cooked meat (can be leftovers) cooked slowly a second time to in liquid (wine/stock/whatever you like) it makes cheap or tuff meat tender.
Thats why old people are so good at making it, they don't have teeth so they become experts at making meat tender ![]() ![]()
