Preparation Brown the onion and the garlic in a large casserole. Add the meat, olives, bay leaves, the diced parsley and the dried tomatoes to the pot. Brown the meat well.

When the meat is well done, add a litre of water and cook for about twenty minutes. Add salt and pepper according to you taste.

Serve very hot on pieces of bread.
 
The Chef's tips Only add salt and pepper when the dish is almost ready because salt makes the juices come out. We suggest you serve Aglianico with your lamb.
