"on a diet "again" and wanted to try a recipe out of sainsburys magazine. only a few ickle changes really. I used lamb escalopes as they had hardly no fat on and were on offer but any lean preperation of lamb can be used so long as all fat is removed before cooking. This is free on slimming world extra easy. It produces a very simple stew feel free to add other seasoning etc to change the flavour"
