Curried Lamb Sausage Ragoût
Ragoût is derived from ragoûter, which is french for “revive the appetite.” It is also the name of a thick, winter-time stew (of sorts) similar to the ragù that is made in Italy. Ragoût can be served as a main course dish, or it may just be used as a thick sauce to accompany potatoes, noodles, or some other form of starch.
