DAILY DINNERS

Make sure your lamb isn't too damp - pat it dry with kitchen paper if you need to, otherwise it won't colour well. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large casserole dish and brown the lamb over a high heat in batches ( if you crowd the pan the meat will seat and not brown). Remove with a slotted spoon as you go. When all the lamb is browned, add the remaining cooking oil and cook the onion and peppers over a medium heat until the onion is golden and the vegetables are softened. Add the paprika and cook for a further 1 min, then add the sherry and bring to a simmer.

Put all the lamb back in the pan, along with the stock, sherry vinegar and honey. Season and bring to just under the boil. Turn the heat down, cover the pan and leave to cook very gently for 2 hrs, turning the meat every so often.

In the last half hour of cooking time, remove the lid so that the sherry and stock can reduce. You want to end up with  completely tender meat in flavoursome gravy - how long this takes will depend on how wide your pan is so you may need to give it longer than 30 mins. Check seasoning. You may want to sweeten the dish slightly. Scatter the parsley or almonds on top or use both. Serve with Couscous.
