Lovely lamb hotpots

Ingredients

• 3 red onions
• 400 g lamb neck fillet
• 6 teaspoons mint sauce
• 4 teaspoons umami paste
• 500 g potatoes

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 170ºC/325ºF/gas 3.
2. Peel and roughly chop the onions, dice the lamb into 3cm chunks, then divide both between four 15cm ovenproof bowls, placing the bowls on a large oven tray.
3. Add 1 teaspoon each of mint sauce and umami paste to each of the bowls, followed by 150ml of water and a little pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Stir well.
4. Quickly scrub the potatoes and rattle them through the thick slicer attachment of a food processor so they’re just under ½cm thick. Divide between the bowls, overlapping them slightly to cover.
5. Press down on the potato layer to compact everything, then cover with tin foil and bake for 2 hours, removing the foil for the last 30 minutes.
6. Spoon over the remaining mint sauce, and tuck in.
