Method

1. Cut the lamb¹ into 3 cm chunks, season with salt, and sear in oil over high heat for 5–7 minutes until browned. Transfer to a baking dish.

2. Slice the onion³ into half-rings, the mushrooms into rounds, and the tomatoes⁵ into cubes. Layer over the lamb¹: onions, mushrooms, tomatoes.

3. Cut the potatoes² into thin slices, season lightly with salt, and arrange tightly on top.

4. Mix 50 ml water into the sour⁷ cream, stir in chopped dill⁸, and pour over the potatoes².

5. Cover the dish with foil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 50 minutes, until the lamb¹ and potatoes² are tender.

6. Remove the foil, sprinkle with grated cheese, and bake another 10 minutes until golden.

7. Let rest 5 minutes before serving hot.
