What's cawl?

Cawl is basically a meat and veg broth. Each area of Wales has it's own way of making it. Some use brisket bones. but I mentain that cawl is made with lamb.

 

When I make Cawl it is with Lamb bones neck, backbone, breast or even leg bones. When I make it it is a two part job, first I boil the bones or breast to make the stock, to the bones I add1 leek, 2 onions, salt & pepper, lamb stock cubes x 2 and a small grated parsnip. Boil that on a rolling boil for about 2 hours. Once the parsnip has disintergrated in to the stock I then take all the bones out and add the veg. I use carrot, swede, parsnip and potatoe.

 

I like them in big chunks and the wife likes them small. So of I make it I make the small dice and if she makes it it's the large chunks.

 

Boil the veg in the stock for about 2 hours, you will need to have a good boiling potato, Mafona or Nadine are good, as they stay whole no matter how small they are or how long you boil them. Once you think the broth is ready I knock the gas off then add the chopped parsley and two chopped leeks and leave it for at least half an hour, that way the leeks still have a bit of bite to them.

 

It is nice with french bread, but even better the next day. with fresh cut spring onions sprinkled on top.
