4 lamb loin chops
a little plain flour
30 ml ( 2 talbespoons ) sunflower oil
1 large onion, 1/2 sliced, 1/2 chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
4 mediuum tomatoes, skinned and chopped

Coat the chops in the flour.
Heat the oil in a pan and fry the chops until slightly browned.
Remove the chops to a plate and fry the onions and garlic ( you may find it easier to use two frying pans at this stage,since the chopped onions are supposed to be kept separate from the sliced onions).
Put the chopped onions in a casserole dish, place the chops on top and then cover with the sliced onions.
Add the tomatoes, stock and garlic vinegar.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and cook in the oven for 1 hour.
Serve wit boiled or mashed potatoes, mint sauce and peas.

Serves 4 - 6 , depending on the size of the joint
leg of lamb
2 - 3 cloves of garlic , thinly sliced
rosemary sprigs
black pepper
45 ml ( 3 tablespoons ) sunflower oil
Pre-heat the oven to 190 C ( 375 F/gas mark 5 ) .
Make small incisions all over the surface of the joint and carefully insert slice of garlic into each.
Also place the rosemary sprigs into a number of the cuts.
Sprinkle with pepper.
Place half the oil in a roasting tin and add the lamb .
Pour the rest of the oil over the joint and cook for about 30 minutes per 450 g ( 1 lb ), plus an extra 30 minutes.
To test, push a fork into the meat: if the juices run clear, the joint is cooked.
Leave the meat to ” relax ” in a warm place for 10-15 minutes.
This makes it easier to carve and more tender to eat.
