Preparation Cut the lamb into small pieces. Slice the onion and sauté it together with the lamb in plenty of oil. Let it brown then add the white flour and stir well. Add the wine, the lemon juice, the parsley and then the peeled tomatoes.

Let it cook at a low heat stirring often. After about an hour the lamb should be tender and ready to be served hot at table.
