We’ve just rediscovered that we really like sweet potatoes and I’m not sure why I haven’t used them more. Part way through cooking, when I lifted the lid, the smell beckoned for dumplings!
Serves 4

Ingredients:
1 TBSP of oil
450g of diced lamb
Salt and pepper
2 onions, chopped
1 tsp of lazy garlic
