Impress your loved ones with this succulent slow-roasted lamb shoulder.

Ingredients:

1.5kg lamb shoulder (bone in)
36.40 gm extra virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp cracked black pepper
3 dried bay leaves, crumbled
3 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs fresh oregano
510.00 gm chicken stock
Chargrilled pita bread, to serve
Orange and Fennel Salad, to serve
220g tub hummus
50.00 gm basil pesto
400g plain Greek-style yoghurt
31.50 gm lemon juice
1 long red chilli, finely chopped
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme leaves
20.00 ml chopped fresh oregano

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan-forced. Place the lamb in a large roasting pan, drizzle with oil and rub to coat. Sprinkle with garlic, dried oregano, pepper, and bay leaves, then top with thyme and fresh oregano. Pour stock around the lamb, cover the pan tightly with 2 layers of foil, and bake for 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove the foil, reduce the oven to 160C/140C fan-forced, and bake for another 1 hour 30 minutes or until the meat falls easily from the bone.
To make Basil Pesto Hummus, combine hummus with 2 tablespoons of basil pesto and lemon juice in a small food processor. Blend until creamy, then season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl, swirl in the rest of the pesto, and refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
Prepare the zesty Lemon Chilli Yoghurt by simply mixing all ingredients in a bowl. Don't forget to season it with a dash of salt and pepper. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator until you're ready to enjoy it.
Present a plate of succulent lamb accompanied by zesty lemon chili yogurt, flavorful basil pesto hummus, char-grilled pita, and a refreshing Orange and Fennel Salad.
