- Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a non-stick casserole. Add the lamb and brown on all sides. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes until golden and softened. Add all the other ingredients except the herbs. Bring to the boil then turn down to a simmer. Cook for an hour, or until the lamb is tender. Cover if it looks like the liquid is evaporating too much. Stir in the herbs before serving.
