- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil, or as needed
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped1 large yellow onion, finely chopped

- Add the garlic-onion mixture to the casserole, along with the reserved bacon pieces, beef stock, and sugar.
- Cover and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, or until the lamb is tender.
-
Add the carrots, the sliced onions, potatoes, thyme, bay leaf, and wine to the pot and simmer, covered, for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Taste test and add salt and pepper as needed.
