Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180ºC/gas 4.

Step 2

Heat a flameproof casserole dish over high heat, spray lightly with olive oil and fry the lamb in batches until browned all over. Set aside.

Step 3

To the same casserole dish, add the onion, celery, carrots, garlic and rosemary and cook, adding a splash of water, until the vegetables have started to soften (approx. 10 minutes).

Step 4

Return the lamb to the casserole and add the Worcestershire sauce, tomatoes and bay leaves. Stir to combine and add 300ml water.

Step 5

Cover and cook in the oven for 45 minutes. Stir in the beans and cabbage, adding extra water as necessary.

Step 6

Return to the oven for a further 15 minutes.
