Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Heat 2 tablespoons clarified butter in large overproof pan. Pat meat dry and add a little at a time to brown.
• In a separate pan, heat remaining clarified butter. Add onions and lightly brown. Add 2 tablespoons fresh butter, then stir in flour. Cook until lightly browned.
• Add onions to meat and combine well. Add beef stock and stir until sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper. Add Worcestershire sauce, sugar, and bay leaves. Spoon off 1/2 cup of the gravy and reserve. Lay kidney slices on top, followed by mushrooms, then oysters. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with overlapping potato slices. Season again and add back 1/2 cup reserved gravy. Roast in oven for 1 hour, uncovered.
• Remove stew from oven and turn up to broil. Broil hot pot for 2 1/2 minutes to brown. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Saute onion until soft and deep golden in color. Remove from skillet and set aside. Add lamb to skillet and fry (in batches if necessary) until rich chestnut brown in color, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain fat and reserve.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Spread 1/2 of the potatoes in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place browned lamb and onions on top, then sprinkle with thyme and season to taste. Cover with remaining potatoes, season to taste and dot with butter. Pour stock over all.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Note: If casserole is drying out while cooking, add more stock as needed. If casserole is browning too quickly, cover with aluminum foil.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3.
• Heat some dripping or butter in a large shallow casserole dish, brown the lamb in batches, lift to a plate, then repeat with the kidneys.
• Fry the onions and carrots in the pan with a little more dripping until golden. Sprinkle over the flour, allow to cook for a couple of mins, shake over the Worcestershire sauce, pour in the stock, then bring to the boil. Stir in the meat and bay leaves, then turn off the heat.
• Arrange the sliced potatoes on top of the meat, then drizzle with a little more dripping. Cover, then place in the oven for about 1½ hrs until the potatoes are cooked.
• Remove the lid, brush the potatoes with a little more dripping, then turn the oven up to brown the potatoes, or finish under the grill for 5-8 mins until brown.

Steps:

• First trim excess fat off lamb chop-do not trim all fat off because we need some to give flavour.
• Next slice potatoes as thick as a pound coin. If you are under pressure with time, slice potatoes more thinly.
• After that chop onion in half through the middle of the root (length ways) then start chopping thinly and reasonably long.
• Now to this recipe I shall use bouillon powder and boiling water to make stock, if you choose to make proper stock skip this step. Boil water then add bouillon powder.
• Also in your pan open the lid and grease the pan with butter.
• Now it is time for layering. Put salt and pepper on each layer and a little more on the meat. Put some potatoes as the bottom layer, then put some of your onions on the potatoes,after that put your lamb chops on after (I am serving two today so I will add all my lamb chops in now but if you are serving more add it on after the second layer of onions), now do another layer of potatoes-don't use all of them, now use the last of the onions, finally put the rest of the potatoes on (there should be the most potatoes on this final layer).Finally put butter on the potatoes so they brown when you take the lid off.
• Finally put it on the hob until simmering, then put in the oven at gas mark 3 for two hours , if pressed for time put it in the oven at gas mark 7 for approximately one hour.
