- Preheat the oven to 190ºC/fan170ºC/gas 5. Heat olive oil in a large, wide pan over a medium heat. Dust lamb leg steaks in plain seasoned flour and fry, in batches, until browned. Set aside.
- Add onion to the pan with carrots, and cook for 5 minutes. Return the lamb to the pan with 300ml hot chicken stock, Worcestershire sauce and a few sprigs of fresh thyme. Season and remove from the heat.
