The Mammal picked up a leaflet for this recipe in Waitrose on its most recent visit to the fine city of Newcastle upon Tyne. It is very simple and straightforward, and very tasty indeed. It has since become a firm favourite: it features on the menu tonight, which reminded us to share it here. It works fine as a weekday supper or dinner with naan bread or rice, but also scrubs up well as the central element of a meal for more notable occasions.
