• Salt and pepper the lamb.
• Then cube feta cheese and sprinkle over the top.
• Thinly slice the tomatoes and layer over the top so that the dish is covered.
• Sprinkle on dried herbs.
• Sprinkle over the olive oil.
• Bake in the oven for 60 to 90 mins (we normally go for 90) at Gas mark 5 or 190°C.
