ragout

Meanings

1. 1
   noun

   a richly seasoned stew of meat, poultry, fish, or vegetables cooked slowly in a sauce

   The cook served a lamb ragout with onions, herbs, and red wine.

Borrowed from French ragoût, from ragoûter ("restore the appetite; give relish"), built on goût ("taste"). Italian ragù was later borrowed from the same French word and is an etymological doublet, though its culinary use developed differently.
