Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Steamed green beans and sliced zucchini. TIPS: You can substitute the canned borlotti beans with 1½ cups (255g) cooked borlotti beans. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat braised lamb in the microwave or in a saucepan on the stovetop, adding a little extra water if sauce is too thick.
