Ingredients

  • 1 pound lamb or beef on the bone, with some meat attached, cut into large pieces
  • 8 cups cold water
  • 1 large onion, peeled and quartered
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled and lightly crushed
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Fresh parsley or dill, chopped, for garnish

Method

  1. Put the meat and bones in a large pot, cover with the cold water, and bring slowly to a boil, skimming off the foam as it rises.
  2. Reduce to the gentlest simmer, add the onion, garlic, and bay leaf, and cook partially covered for 1 hour 30 minutes, skimming occasionally; do not let the broth boil hard or it will turn cloudy.
  3. Add the carrots, salt, and pepper and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes more, until the meat and carrots are tender.
  4. Lift out the meat and carrots. Strain the broth if you like and return it to the pot to keep hot.
  5. Cut the meat from the bones into bite-size pieces and discard the bones, onion, garlic, and bay leaf.
  6. Divide the meat and carrots among bowls, ladle the hot clear broth over, scatter with parsley or dill, and serve at once.
