Ingredients

  • 1 x 2 kg shoulder lamb
  • 2 large onions, peeled and halved
  • 1 bulb of garlic, halved
  • 300ml red wine
  • 500ml stock
  • 1 kg large potatoes, peeled, cooked and cubed
  • Rosemary, a few sprigs
  • 100g butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 shallot, sliced

Method

Preheat the oven to 170 degrees.

Place the halved onions and halved garlic bulb into a roasting tray and lay the lamb on top. Season well then pour in the wine and stock.

Tuck the rosemary around the lamb and cook in the oven for two hours.

After the lamb is cooked place it onto a board with the onions and garlic to rest. Reduce the left over liquid by half and add a knob of butter.
