This a classic and very frugal Irish dish made simply with lamb neck, onions, potatoes and herbs.

Ingredients:

700g middle neck of lamb, cut into cutlets and trimmed
2 onions, sliced
450g potatoes, thinly sliced
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tsp dried thyme
salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
fresh parsley, chopped, to garnish

Method:

Add a little or butter to the base of a deep oven-proof casserole dish. Form layers of the meat, onions, potatoes, herbs and seasonings alternating as you go and finishing with a layer of potatoes.

Pour 300ml water or stock over the top then cover with a sheet of greaseprof (waxed) paper before securing the casserole's lid. Transfer to an oven pre-heated to 170°C and bake for about 2 hours, or until the meat and vegetables are tender. Serve hot, either straight from the casserole or in a serving dish, garnished with fresh parsley.
