Ingredients

2 servings
  • 4 tbs Olive Oil
  • 750 g Lamb
  • 1 1/2 tsp Saffron
  • 1 Large Chopped Onion
  • 25 ml Water
  • 30 g Parsley
  • 1 tbs Butter

    Suggested swaps

    Coconut oil · 1:1 ratio — Works well in baking; adds slight coconut flavor
    Olive oil · 3:4 ratio — Use ¾ cup oil per 1 cup butter; best for savory dishes
  • 1 whole Lemon

Instructions

1

Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Season with saffron, salt and pepper to taste; stir in all but 4 tablespoons of the onion, and pour in the water. Bring to the boil, then cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the lamb is tender, about 15 minutes.

2

Uncover the pan, stir in the butter and allow the sauce reduce 5 to 10 minutes to desired consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then pour into a serving dish. Sprinkle with the remaining chopped onions and parsley. Garnish with lemon wedges to serve.
