A simple and tasty way to get the best flavours from this thrifty cut.
4 tbs vegetable oil 7 sprigs thyme 1kg neck chops, sliced 1 wineglass of lamb stock Juice of 1 ½ lemons Salt & pepper
Heat the oil in a heavy-based saucepan or deep frying pan. Add slices of neck and allow to sizzle and spit for a few minutes, turning until lightly browned all over. Add lemon juice, thyme, stock and salt and pepper, then turn down the heat, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Leave to simmer, with the lid on, for 45-50 minutes, until meat is tender. Serve with crusty bread and a good tomato salad.
