Ingredients
1 tsp vegetable oil
1 red onion, sliced
400g Welsh Diced Lamb Leg

1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion and lamb, season generously with the Moroccan-style salt and stir-fry for 5 minutes.
2. Add the chilli and tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes until the tomatoes are softened and pulpy. Stir in the cannellini beans, apricots and 150ml of the stock and simmer for a further 10 minutes.

Cook’s tip
A traditional tagine is made with chickpeas but this one uses cannellini beans. Why not try it with borlotti or kidney beans for a change?
