  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 50g butter
  • 25g flour
  • 1 bouquet garni
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed

  • 750g young vegetables

Method

Step 1

Sprinkle the meat with salt, pepper and the sugar.

Step 2

Heat the butter in a large saucepan, add the lamb and cook gently, stirring once or twice, until it is delicately browned; the sugar gives it a faint caramel taste.

Step 3

Blend in the flour, then add the water and stir as the liquid comes to the boil and thickens very slightly.

Step 4

Add the bouquet garni, garlic, tomatoes and any extra seasoning required.

Step 5

Simmer gently for about 45 minutes then add the selection of young vegetables, such as new potatoes, baby carrots, young broad beans, diced young turnips, fresh peas when available. Check there is sufficient liquid when adding and cooking the vegetables.

Step 6

Cover the pan and cook until the meat and vegetables are tender.

Step 7

Serve.
