Really good and easy. We had left-over leg of goat and went with the same idea Anke had. We also added baby corn and mangetout and coriander, plus a wee bit extra hot sauce as we like it spicy.

    Yum, I also added thinly sliced carrots and then I absent-mindedly started chopping the shallots quite thinly so when dishing out the meal the shallots just disappeared into the meal, so then I looked at the above picture and saw the pieces were quite large, anyway I just chopped more up and sprinkled them on top. Thanks for a great tasting recipe Jan

    This is a very nice and quickly prepared dish. I used some left over meat from a roast leg, so I skipped the meat stir frying part. Instead I stir fried some veggies, removed them from the wok and proceeded exactly as stated in the recipe. I added my leftover meat just as the sauce started to thicken (I used meat that was still pink, so it would not be overcooked). I added the garlic/onion mix and just before serving tossed in the stirfried veggies. I'm sure this would be even better with the filet, but since that is practically unaffordable where I live, this makes a perfect way of using leftover lamb without anyone knowing that they are eating leftovers. Thanks for another great recipe Jan.

    This is just my sort of dish, Jan S. Fast, easy, and most importantly, tasty. I think a stir-fried spinach side dish would go well with this. We'll be having it again.
