Heat a non-stick casserole pan with a lid until hot, then add the lamb and brown all over. Then add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until soft. Tip in the harissa and tinned tomatoes, then fill the empty tomato tin up with water and add that to the pot. Add a chicken stock cube or equivalent in concentrated liquid stock.
