Slow cooked Shoulder of Lamb

Lamb recipes tend to be exceptionally varied, with meals that offer classic comfort food as well as dishes that boast a more delicate, refined flavour. Take a look at the Slow cooked Shoulder of Lamb recipe below as tried and tested by our professional chefs.

Ingredients

Whole shoulder of lamb
Garlic, rosemary, white onion, leek, carrots, celery, stock and red wine

Method

Sear the shoulder to get a golden brown crust sealing in the juices, prod with garlic cloves and rosemary, place on tray with mirepoix , add stock and a good splash of red wine, cover and let the oven do its magic (20min on 180C, 2h on 140C)- until it literally falls off the bone!
Enjoy with seasonal vegetables, roasts and gravy made with juices from the roasting tray...oh and wine obviously :)
