Method

Firstly carefully brown the lamb on all sides then place the lamb, potatoes and garlic into the pot.

Now add the lemon juice, 150m/l water and the 3 x teaspoons from the recipe spice pouch. Toss with your hands to mix well then place everything firmly together in the pot. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and make sure the pot is well sealed. Covering the top with foil before placing the lid works well.

Bake at around 180c for at least two hours. The lamb must be falling of the bone. After 1 hour check and add a little more water if the lamb is drying out.

Important: The juice from two large lemons is important.
