Parsley roots are a real boon for our vitamin stores. With B vitamins, vitamin C and flavonoids, you can get through the winter in good health. Too high blood pressure? Thanks to dried Apricots high values can be regulated, because the potassium contained has a balancing effect.
If you do without alcohol, simply replace the red wine with the same amount of meat broth. Instead of apricots, you can also try dried plums or figs: This gives the dish an even more wintry aroma.

Preparation steps
Rinse lamb, pat dry and chop coarsely. Peel 2 garlic cloves and onion, chop both finely. Heat 4 tablespoons of oil in a roasting pan or deep tray. Add the meat with the onion and garlic and roast in a preheated oven at 210 °C / 415 ˚F for approx. 15 minutes, turning occasionally.
In the meantime, clean and peel carrots and cut thick ones in half lengthwise. Peel celery and cut into sticks. Clean, peel and quarter parsley roots lengthwise. Wash and clean potatoes and cut into coarse pieces. Add the vegetables, cinnamon stick and mustard seeds to the meat and season with salt and pepper. Add bay leaf, cumin, coriander, tomato paste and 1 pinch of chili powder. Pour in 2⁄3 of the broth, mix in and braise everything in the oven for another 45 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding broth as needed.
At the end of the 45 minutes cooking time, add the apricots to the meat and cook for another 45 minutes, mixing well every now and then.
While meat is braising, peel remaining garlic and cut into sticks. Heat remaining oil in a frying pan. Sauté garlic in it over medium heat for 4 minutes, then remove and set aside. Wash mint, shake dry and chop finely. Mix garlic, lemon zest and mint.
Season the lamb stew to taste. To serve, sprinkle with the mixture of garlic, lemon zest, mint and almonds.
