  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 2 medium brown onions, finely chopped
  • 800g lamb mince
  • 250.00 ml dried red lentils
  • 91.58 gm tomato paste
  • 2 x 400g cans diced tomatoes

Instructions:
  • In a large, deep frying pan over medium-high heat, heat oil. Saute onion for 3 minutes until softened. Add mince and cook, stirring to break it up, for 10 minutes until browned.
  • Combine lentils, tomato paste, fresh tomato, stock cube, and dried herbs in a pot. Lower the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes until it thickens. Mix in the vegetables and season with salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced.
