Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 150ºC, gas mark 2. Trim any excess fat from the lamb and cut into chunky bite-sized pieces.


  2. 2

    Place the seasoned flour on a plate and use it to coat the lamb pieces. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large frying pan and fry the lamb in 2 batches for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned. Drain on kitchen paper then place in a 2-litre casserole dish.


  3. 3

    Add the onions to the pan with another tablespoon of oil and fry for about 2 minutes until beginning to soften. Spoon in the remaining oil, the mushrooms and the thyme sprigs and fry for 5 minutes or until the mushrooms begin to soften. Add to the lamb and pour in the stock.


  4. 4

    Layer the celeriac over the lamb, top with the potato slices and season. Put on the lid and cook for 1&1/2 hours then remove the lid and cook for a further hour, or until the potato topping is crisp and golden. Leave to rest for 15 minutes before serving with Chantenay carrots and lightly-steamed tenderstem broccoli.
