Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium-high heat.
Add the cubed lamb shoulder, in batches if necessary, and brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

Add the cubed potatoes, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, cover with a lid, and let it cook on low heat for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the lamb is tender and the flavors have melded together.
Remove the bay leaves. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.
Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
