medieval lamb stew

Cut the meat and vegetables into large pieces. Chop the herbs and ginger about the size of a thumb, and the garlic not so finely. Take a roasting pan and place it on the fire. Add the meat, vegetables, and herbs and sear for a few moments. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the meat with honey and let it simmer. After a few more moments, add a splash of buttermilk, enough to cover the bottom, and let it simmer. Top it up with good wine and put it in the oven (about 40-60 minutes at 180°C).
