| Cooked this at a friends on Saturday and it was delicious. We had it with chickpea couscous and a spinach salad. We left the olives out as neither of us like them and we caramelized our own onions rather than buying them pre-prepared. Here's the full recipe - Ingredients 1kg/2lb 3Ľoz leg of lamb, chopped into bite-sized pieces 1 garlic bulb, separated into cloves, but unpeeled 1 x 350g/12oz can pitted black olives in brine, rinsed and drained to give 150g/5oz drained weight 100g/3˝oz caramelised onions, from a jar 4 tbsp capers, rinsed and drained 2 tsp ground cumin 2 tsp ground ginger 1 x 75cl bottle red wine Method 1. Preheat the oven to 150C/300F/Gas 2. 2. Place all of the ingredients into a lidded casserole or heavy-based ovenproof pan, pouring in the wine last and giving everything a good stir. 3. Bring to the boil, then clamp on the lid and transfer to the oven. Cook for two hours, or until the lamb is very tender. |

| Hey oneforthefrog...How are you?
Recipe sounds great except for the lamb...I'm not a big fan, but I imagine I could substitute with chicken or pork. I love olives, and would maybe use kalamata olives instead of regular black.
Thanks! |

| Welcome back, OFTF! I wondered where you were! Your recipe sounds so good! I'd carmelize my own onions, too. I don't even if we can get them in a jar, over here. |
