Cook's notes:
You may substitute Worcestershire or soy sauce for mushroom ketchup
but it does not have the same flavours.
Homemade sweet chilli sauce works well and can replace mushroom ketchup.
I added 1tsp Ras el Hanout, my new favourite spice, when making this
and it really spices up the flavour of the lamb.
Definition of sippet: a small piece of bread or toast,
used to dip into soup or sauce or as a garnish.
