Ingredients:

8 lamb cutlets
2 tbsp oil
1 onion, chopped
225g carrots, sliced
2 celery sticks, sliced
2 tbsp plain flour
350ml lamb or beef stock
3 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
3 bay leaves
1/2 tsp dried mint
salt and black pepper, to taste

Method:

Add the oil to a frying pan and use to brown the lamb. Transfer to an oven-proof casserole dish and set aside. Add the vegetables to the frying pan and fry for about 4 minutes, stirring all the while then add the flour and fry for 1 minute before adding the stock.

Stir rapidly to mix into the flour then add the tomato paste and the Worcestershire sauce. Season to taste, bring to a boil then add to the casserole along with the bay leaves and mint.

Add the lid to the casserole and place in an oven pre-heated 180°C (350°F/Gas Mark 4) and allow to cook for 90 minutes, or until the meat is tender. Serve hot with buttered mashed potatoes and boiled root vegetables.
