New Year’s Eve lamb shoulder

It’s a cheaper cut than most because it’s admittedly fatty.

But with low and slow cooking, this fat melts away, giving you really tender, moist lamb.

And enriches the flavours in the sauce.

You can really make up your own ingredients with this dish.

So, below is just a guide.

Tim recently did a lamb shoulder (main pic) and added dried borlotti beans to the dish to cook in the wine and juices.

And ‘wow’, what a taste sensation.
