Slow Cooked Lamb Ragu with Pappardelle
Ingredients:
- Trim lamb of excess fat and cut into 5cm pieces
- Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Cook lamb, for 1-2 minutes each side, or until browned. Transfer to a slow cooker

- Stir in Celebrate Health Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce, canned tomatoes, 125ml (1/2 cup) water and vinegar and bring to the boil. Transfer mixture to slow cooker, ensuring sauce evenly covers the lamb
