ingredients
2 1/2 pounds lamb shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 teaspoons pure olive oil
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
2 medium onions, diced
2  carrots, diced
2  celery stalks, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons flour
1/4 cup white wine
1  bottle dark beer
3 cups chicken or lamb stock
10  fingerling potatoes, cut in half lengthwise
1/2 pound black trumpet mushrooms, trimmed and washed
2 teaspoons creme fraiche

directions
In a medium pot, heat olive oil and butter on medium-high heat. Season lamb with salt and pepper and brown lamb on all sides. 
 Remove lamb and saute onions, carrots, celery and garlic on medium heat. Season vegetables with salt and pepper, add flour, and continue cooking for 3 minutes. 
 Deglaze pot with white wine and reduce by three-quarters. Add beer, bring it to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. 
 Place lamb back into the pot, cover with chicken stock, and cook until lamb is extremely tender, about 45 minutes. Add fingerling potatoes to pot and cook until they are tender, another 20 to 25 minutes. 
 In a separate pan, saute black trumpet mushrooms and add them to the pot. Stir in creme fraiche and horseradish and check for seasoning, adding salt and pepper if needed.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
