Method
- Remember to remove your lamb henry from the packaging, pat dry and bring to room temperature
- Pre heat your oven to 145 oc temperature
- Next choose a suitable sized oven proof casserole with a tight fitting lid
- Season the lamb just prior to coloring with good quality sea salt
- Make a mirepoix by neatly chopping equal amounts of onion, carrot and celery or my preferred choice of celeriac, the root of the celery plus a bay leaf, sprig of rosemary and a few black peppercorns, another nice addition can be a head of garlic split in half
- Take a large, heavy based frying pan, and add a few drops pomace or vegetable oil
- Fry the lamb on all sides then transfer to the casserole dish
- Next fry the mirepoix until lightly coloured
- Then add half a bottle of white wine, and reduce by two thirds then add 500 ml of essential cuisine lamb stock, 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) and reduce a little, thicken with a tablespoon corn flour mixed with a little cold water and stirred into the boiling broth
- Pour the sauce over the lamb and cover
- Place in the centre of the oven and cook for approximately 3 and a half hours, the meat should be tender when pierced with a meat fork and pull clean away from the bone
- Remove from oven, carefully take out the meat and keep warm
- Pass off the juices through a fine sieve into a clean sauce pan and reduce to a glossy finish then pour back over the meat ready to serve
