Comment préparer

1
Put the lamb shoulder, rinsed split peas, and hot lamb stock in a large heavy-bottomed pot. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, skimming away any foam that rises.
2
Lower the heat to maintain a quiet simmer, partially cover, and cook for 45 minutes. Stir occasionally so the split peas do not settle and check that the lamb remains submerged.
3
Add the leek, carrot, swede, and celeriac. Season with the salt and pepper, return to a gentle simmer, and cook uncovered for 35 minutes, until the roots are nearly tender and the lamb is yielding.

4
Stir in the shredded Savoy cabbage and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, until the cabbage is tender but still green and the lamb reaches at least 74°C at the center.
5
Taste and adjust the seasoning. If the broth is thicker than desired, add hot water a little at a time; it should coat a spoon lightly while remaining pourable.
6
Ladle the broth into warm bowls, scatter with chopped parsley, and serve immediately with crusty bread.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne

Split peas naturally thicken the stock while lamb shoulder contributes richness; sweet roots, leek, and cabbage provide the layered, gently earthy flavor associated with traditional Scotch broth.
