Tender pieces of succulent lamb with chunky vegetables and rich gravy swimming in a bread "cauldron". A perfect Halloween recipe for your witches and wizards!
Dredge the cubed lamb shoulder in half the flour, seasoned with salt and pepper.
Place the butter and sunflower oil in the cooking bowl of your pressure cooker and select BROWN/SAUTE. Set the timer for five minutes.
Brown the dredged lamb shoulder.
Add the remaining ingredients, except for the bread, and stir well.
Seal the lid, set pressure to HIGH and set the timer for 15 minutes.
Allow the pressure cooker to depressurise for 10 minutes before removing the lid.
Dissolve the remaining flour in a little water and thicken the stew, as desired. You may need a little extra flour to get it to your preferred consistency.
Carefully cut the tops off of four large bread rolls and scoop out the insides, leaving a thick crust.
Fill the bread rolls with stew and serve immediately.

Slow Cooker Method
Heat the butter and oil in a saute pan over a medium high heat and brown the dredged, seasoned lamb shoulder for five minutes.
