This turned out very well actually - I had my doubts, but it worked really well with lamb koftas. Try and get sour cherries if you can - often in. middle eastern shops as 'barberries'. Makes all the difference. Would cook again

Tried this recipe as a side to roast chicken, worked out perfectly and plenty left for lunch the next day. I had to substitute the cherries with cranberries as I struggled to find any but still came out lovely
