2. To make the piperade, heat the olive oil in a large, deep frying pan or a wok, then add the onions and cook for 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and peppers. Season with salt, pepper and thyme, then sprinkle with the Espelette chilli powder or paprika. Cover the pan and simmer for 2 hours. Once cooked, stir the mixture into a pulp.

3. Cook the flageolet beans in the lamb stock or water, by bringing to the boil in a saucepan then reducing the heat a simmer, covering and cooking for 90 minutes or until very tender. Add them to the piperade pulp.

4. To serve, grill the diced lamb on the charcoal embers of a barbecue for 15 to 25 minutes, turning frequently. Pour some piperade pulp and flageolets beans on a plate then add the cooked lamb.
