Sautéing the Aromatics

Creating the Flavour Base

Cooking the Lamb to Perfection

Adding Vegetables and Final Simmer

• Once the initial liquid has reduced, add another 500 ml of boiling water along with the potatoes, carrots, and salt to taste. When the potatoes are almost tender, add the cherry tomatoes. Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it cook slowly until the meat and vegetables are tender.
