- Start with the mash. Peel and chop the potato and kumera and cook in boiling water till tender. Drain and add the milk, salt and pepper and mash well. Set aside and keep warm while the lamb is cooking.
- Spray the fillets on each side with olive oil spray. Combine the spices in a shallow bowl or plate and roll the lamb in the spices. Rub the spices into the fillets to coat them well.

- In the pan you cooked the lamb in pour in the stock and red wine and deglaze pan. Reduce the liquid till it is slightly syrupy and turn off heat.
- Slice meat and serve with the mash and a green vegetable. Spoon sauce over the top and serve.

Made for the ZWT5! This was a really easy dish to make and will definitely make it again. I don't usually cook lamb but this didn't call for much and didn't have me in the kitchen for ages. Thank you for the recipe!! PS. the recipe didn't say where to put the feta in so I just put it in when I added the milk :)

This is really a shared account between Helen and Aoibhe. Helen is Welsh, in her mid thirties and teaches English and History. Aoibhe is Scots, six weeks older, and works in customer service. The majority of the posts and feedback will come from Helen, but Aoibhe will occasionally have something to share.
We love to travel and are currently living in our fourth country. Since we've just bought a house and a bit of land, we're probably here to stay for quite a while. It appears we've become adults, which is rather scary...
Helen considers herself to be a good basic cook, but is trying to branch out and try new things. Aoibhe doesn't really enjoy cooking, but loves to eat, and she always has an opinion on what she eats.
Helen enjoys reading, gardening and adores old movies. Aoibhe likes to run. Helen is not designed to run and thinks this is slightly mad.
Favourite dish to cook? Just about anything as long as the directions are clear.
Famous dish? Helen's mum's Welsh cakes and Aoibhe's gran's shortbread. One of these days we'll post the recipes.
Favourite restaurant? We've eaten at so many fantastic restaurants in so many places, that it's impossible to name just one.
