Nothing beats the unique and delicious flavour of lamb!
300g finely diced lamb (or leftover leg of lamb, chopped)
1 red pepper
200g frozen peas
100g vermicelli noodles
8 large eggs
100ml crème fraîche
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A few mint leaves
100g feta cheese
50g grated parmesan or vintage Farmhouse cheddar
2 tbsp olive oil
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4. Dice the pepper into small cubes.
Place the peas into a saucepan of boiling water. When the water comes back to the boil, add the noodles and the diced pepper. Allow to cook for 4 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Heat a little oil in a frying pan. Add the lamb, brown over a high heat.
Beat the eggs with the crème fraîche, salt, pepper and the finely chopped mint leaves. Add the cooked lamb, crumbled feta and the peas, vermicelli and pepper mixture.
Pour into a greased baking dish or ovenproof frying pan, sprinkle with the grated cheese and bake for about 30 minutes in the oven (depending on the size of dish).
Serve hot or cold, with salad, for a picnic or a snack, etc.
