CRISPY AROMATIC LAMB

Steps:

• Preheat the Oven to 150c/fan 120c/gas 2
• lightly oil a roast tin with a little oil
• place the shoulder of lamb into the roasting tin & spread half of the jar of Chinese 5 spice paste over the shoulder
• cook for approx 2 1/2 hours then turn over & cover the side of the shoulder with the remaining paste
• roast for approx another 2 1/2 hours, this is rather general as you can keep this in the oven all day in a low oven and the fat from the Shoulder will melt into the meat & keep it moist for several hours.
• serve with, if you have them, chinese pancakes or tortilla wraps, hoisin sauce, sliced spring onions, cucumber & spredded lettuce. Enjoy
