Ingredients
- 1.3 kg lamb shoulder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 carrot peeled and sliced
- 1 onion finely sliced
- 350 ml vegetable stock
- 3 garlic clove thinly sliced
- 2 g fresh Rosemary
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon Olive oil in a large pan. Add 1.3 kg Lamb shoulder and brown on all sides.
- Put 1 Onion and 1 Carrot into the slow cooker. Place the browned lamb on top of the vegetables.
- Using a sharp knife, cut holes into the lamb. Push slices of 3 Garlic clove and some rosemary leaves into each hole.
- Season and pour in 350 ml Vegetable stock. Be careful to pour the stock around the lamb, not over the top of it.
- Cook on high for 5 hours.
- Remove the meat from the slow cooker and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
Notes
- If you want to add even more flavour to the gravy, then once you have taken the seared lamb out of the pan, you can de-glaze it with either some stock of a glug of red wine. Once added to the pan, use a wooden spoon to scrape it and then pour it in to the slow cooker.
- If you have any gravy left over, you can wait for it to cool and then pour it into freezer bags, lay flat and freeze.
- The key to making this lamb really special is cutting the holes in it and stuffing them with garlic and rosemary.
- Make sure you pour the stock in to the side of the lamb, as you don't want to knock the rosemary and garlic out of the lamb.
- If you want to add some more flavour, and make it extra crispy on the outside, then after it has finished cooking in the slow cooker, transfer it to a roasting tin and cook it in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
