LAMB WEEK: LAMB LEG STIR FRY (A), quick, easy, nutritious

Perfect meal for a starving singleton after a hard day's work...
Quick, Easy, Tasty & Nutritious: Stir-fried lamb, green beans and rice
'Beautifully tender meat, crunchy green beans and gorgeously separate rice grains. Fabulous!' Retired writer
Flash-fried Oriental Lamb arose from a discounted package of diced British lamb leg from a trusted supermarket*.  Marinated with sherry, soy sauce and orange and teamed with leftover raw green beans, it took barely 10 minutes to cook - including the optional rice.

The lamb was lean and with little fat; it was sliced thinly before marinading. 

The cooked lamb could have been served just as it was for a low-carb treat but 67 added quick-cook fluffy white Basmati rice** to soak up the fabulous juices. 

It was quite delicious, even though frugal - very little meat is required.  The recipe multiplies nicely.

Cost: £1'ish
Feeds: 1 but multiplies easily
