Saltkjöt og Baunir is a delicious salt meat stew made from simple ingredients that would have been found in Icelandic kitchens year round. A dried split pea base, and thick vegetable chunk style makes this stew into a hearty warm meal, perfect for November.
Ingredients:
-2ltrs of water
-200g yellow split peas
- 400g potatoes
-400g carrots
- 500 g lamb meat or salted pork
- 1tsp salt
- 1 medium onion
Start my softening the peas in a portion of the water. This will take about 20minutes. Bring the rest of the water to a boil in a pot.
Pour the peas and water solution into the pot and allow to come to a rolling boil. Add onions
salt and salted meat. Cook for an hour.
Half way through the cooking process add carrots
and potatoes. Allow to cook for the remainder of the time.
Serve hot with a piece of bread for dipping. This is one of the best stew recipes I have ever tried. I am amazed at how such basic ingredients can create something so delicious.
