When you think of stews, you probably think meat and potatoes. But sub the potatoes for some yams, and you’ve got a hearty paleo feast. The yams can get a bit mushy if you’re not careful when stirring, but I think it adds to the charm. The star of this tasty dish is the melt in your mouth tender lamb.
Ingredients

- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 onion, chopped
