900g lamb leg chops
olive oil
2 onions, sliced
4 carrots, peeled and sliced
30ml cake flour
500ml chicken or beef stock
10ml Worcestershire sauce
10ml dried mint
1 can chickpeas, drained
4-6 potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
50ml melted butter
Instructions:
1. Trim the fat off the chops and cut the meat into cubes. Remove the bones. Heat some olive oil in a saucepan and brown the meat in batches. Remove from the pan and set aside.
2. Heat a little more oil in the pan and fry the onions and carrots until golden. Add the flour and stir. Add the stock gradually and stir well.
3. Add the Worcestershire sauce, mint and chickpeas. Return the meat to the pan and simmer for five minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
4. Cover with slices of potato arranged so they overlap. Pour the melted butter over the potatoes. Cover and bake at 160C for 1½ hours. Uncover and grill until golden.
