| 3 | Tablespoon | flour |
| 2 | Tablespoon | sugar |

Heat oil in heavy skillet and brown lamb on all sides. Sprinkle with flour and continue browning. Sprinkle with sugar and allow it to caramelize (this adds fine color to the stew). Add stock, bay leaf, rosemary, and salt to taste. Simmer about 45 minutes, or until meat is tender. Let stand 15 minutes then skim off fat. Add vegetables and cook about 30 minutes longer until vegetables are tender.
