Instructions
- Set the oven 160 C / 320 F
- Mix all of the ingredients for the marinade together except the water. Coat the whole shoulder in the mixture. Marinate overnight if you like. Otherwise put the water into a heavy baking dish and put in the marinated Lamb.( The water is just to give it a nice moisture laden start). Cover with baking paper and foil and seal very well.
- Bake for 4 hours.
To make the Salad
- Mix the herbs, spices, lime juice and olive oil. Add the black beans, tomatoes and stir. Mix in the crushed Feta and avocado if you want it in this salad ( You can add finely chopped onion if you like that. )
Salsa
- Use a food processor to make this. Put all the ingredients into the machine and pulse till pureed. If you want some chunks don't puree completely.
- The lamb is cooked when it is easy to pull apart with a fork.
- Use a spoon to drain off some of the oil from the sauce
Notes
- Achiote is a very deeply coloured spice that adds a great lemony sort of flavour. You could substitute with a bit of Sumac, or even some preserved lemon chopped up very very fine, or just use lemon zest and juice.
