Default ford focus- stalling problem

I have a ford focus 2004 1.8L manual. Was wondering if anyone had heard of this problem. On slowing down at a round about, traffic lights or a corner, the car occasionally stalls. this is a very erratic problem that might happen a couple of times a day or not for a few days. After stalling, when you start the car again it goes along like nothing has happened. I have taken it to my mechanic and it won't stall for him to see what the problem is. If anyone has heard of this problem, could you please let me know so I can give my mechanic a starting point.
