- 1 onion.
- 4 garlic cloves.
- 1 tin of whole peeled tomatoes.

Theses quantities will feed two (large portions) or three (smaller portions).
The equipment:
- Cast iron pot or camp oven to suit the group size.
- Chopping board and knife.
- Wooden spoon.
- Coals (forearm size logs will quickly produce wonderful coals).
Dice the onion and garlic.
Heat the cast iron on the coals and then add some oil and the onion and garlic.
Once the onion is softening and brown add the lamb.
When the lamb is browned, add the tin of tomatoes and the tomato paste. Stir through and cover with lid.

Pop the lid back on for another 15 minutes and then dinner is served.
