Season the lamb chunks with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

Heat the olive oil in a large lidded pan and fry the onions, carrot and celery for 4–5 minutes, or until softened.

Add the lamb chunks and fry for a further 4–5 minutes, or until browned all over.

Add the peas, potatoes and tomatoes, cover again and continue to cook for about an hour, until the sauce has reduced by half.
