Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oil in a pan over high heat, add the lamb and turmeric and sear for 2–3 minutes until browned but still pink inside. Tip onto a plate.

  2. 2

    Fry the onion until soft, then add the herbs and spinach and fry for 3–4 minutes until darkened and fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add the stock, lemon juice and kidney beans and simmer for 10 minutes until thickened.

  4. 4

    Return the lamb and its juices for 2 minutes. Season to taste and serve with rice.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 150 g spinach, 180 g lamb leg steak and 7 spring onions. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
