Looks like a good way to cook a shoulder roast of lamb. My hubby is from Norway where they eat a lot of lamb. His favorite recipe is lamb and cabbage. He would like this, I know. Thank you for sharing.

I have to say I don’t eat that much red meat these days but lamb has always been a favourite and love it from time to time. You’re welcome girlfriend xx

I’m impressed, buttercup! Seven kms per day. I walk nearly every day, but my closer to home routes are shorter. I seldom eat meat and the last time, it was spicy lamb-balls in Naan bread with the ever tantalizing cucumber sauce and condiments.
Thanks for an ever appreciated simple & delicious recipe that impresses.
