Pepper & Me

This tantalisingly tender garlic and herb lamb is an absolute stalwart, and an immensely satisfying dish for the guests or family.

To cook this in a slow cooker, brown the lamb if you can and add all ingredients to the bowl of your slow cooker. Good on low for 8 hours (all day) or high for 6 hours.

To reduce the cooking liquid drain it into a saucepan and simmer until it is slightly reduced and thicken with cornflour as above.
