I'm allergic to tomatoes, so I substituted tomato paste for the canned tomatoes. It worked out great and the dish was still very flavorful.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover lamb. I had some leftover from Easter dinner and it turned out great in this dish.

This dish was a bit time-consuming to make, but it was definitely worth it. The flavors were incredible and the meat was fall-off-the-bone tender.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of lamb. But I'm so glad I did! The lamb was so tender and flavorful, and the overall dish was amazing.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now and it always turns out great. I love the combination of flavors and the fact that it's a one-pot meal.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit with my family! The only thing I changed was that I used ground beef instead of lamb. It was still very flavorful and delicious.
