Quick lamb & potato pot recipe

Ingredients

  • 450g potatoes, unpeeled
  • 600g diced lamb
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • leaves from 2 sprigs rosemary, chopped
  • 500g pot fresh lamb or beef gravy

Method

  • Slice the potatoes to about the thickness of a magazine (half a cm). Cook in boiling water for 8-10 mins until tender. Meanwhile, heat an ovenproof frying pan or shallow casserole on a high heat. Dry-fry the lamb for 5 mins until browned, letting the meat release itself from the base before you turn it. Heat the grill to medium.

  • Tip the onion and most of the rosemary into the pan and fry for 3 mins until the onion is slightly softened and takes on some of the colour from the lamb. Stir in the gravy, then season with black pepper.

  • Drain the potato slices and lay over the meat, each one overlapping slightly, then grill for about 5 mins, until the potatoes are golden.
