Ingredients:
  • 2kg Lamb Shoulder Roast Bone In
  • 8 small rosemary sprigs
  • 2 red onions, cut into wedges
  • 125ml orange juice
  • 2.50 gm ground paprika
  • 250ml chicken stock
  • 2 mandarins (such as Afourer), peeled, thickly sliced
  • 2 oranges, peeled, thinly sliced
  • 1 Ruby Red grapefruit, peeled, thinly sliced
  • 1 small fennel, finely shaved, fronds reserved

  • 60g pkt Baby Rocket
  • 40.00 ml white wine vinegar
  • 28.60 gm honey
  • 11.80 gm wholegrain mustard
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 140°C. Next, place the lamb fat-side up on a clean surface and make 8 small slits on top with a sharp knife. Insert 1 rosemary sprig into each slit.
  • Place the onion at the base of a large roasting pan, followed by the lamb. Brush the lamb with orange juice, sprinkle with sugar and paprika, then season. Pour stock around the lamb and cover the pan tightly with foil. Roast for 6 hours, basting occasionally, until the lamb is tender. Let it rest covered for 10 minutes before serving.
  • Arrange mandarin, orange, grapefruit, fennel, onion, and rocket beautifully on a serving platter to create the citrus and fennel salad.
  • Combine oil, vinegar, honey, and mustard in a jar with a lid. Shake well to mix. Season to taste.
  • - Drizzle half of the dressing over the citrus and fennel salad, then sprinkle with the reserved fennel fronds. - Transfer the lamb and roasted onion to a large serving platter and drizzle with pan juices. - Serve the lamb alongside the citrus and fennel salad, with the remaining dressing on the side.
