Ingredients

  • 3 medium onions
  • 6 large waxy potatoes
  • 1 bunch thyme
  • salt and black pepper
  • 1 whole lamb shoulder
  • 1 garlic
  • 568ml/1 pint chicken stock
  • cooked French beans

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 130C/275F/Gas 1.
  • In a bowl combine the onions, potatoes and thyme. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Layer the potatoes and onions in a roasting tin and place the lamb on top skin-side up.
  • Cut small incisions in the lamb using a small knife and stick the whole garlic cloves in the holes, pushing them into the meat to prevent them burning while the meat cooks.
