Hunger Games Dinner: Katniss's Lamb Stew with Dried Prunes


This recipe is a winner. It took about 4 hours from start to finish (most of it is down time while it simmers on the stove top) but it was just outstanding.

It took me 3 days (actually, 3 sleepless nights) to read the entire Hunger Games trilogy. I couldn't help it--the story was so intense that I couldn't put the books down! Obsessed with all things Hunger Games, I scoured the internet for recipes from the book until I found this one. The Vancouver Sun had the brilliant idea of having a recipe contest for Hunger Games-inspired meals. This was the winner in the "Capitol foods" division. Being Katniss's favorite dish, I knew I had to try it. It's comforting and luxurious at the same time.
