This can be tasty but the directions are terrible. Grind or chop the lamb prior to cooking and have all the other ingredients chopped/sliced and ready. If you start the onions before preparing the other ingredients they will burn. It works well with whole very small potatoes (rather than sliced), but you'll need to cook a lot longer after adding them.
