Preparation steps

1.

Preheat oven to 140°C (approximately 300°F).

2.

Heat oil in a roasting pan over high heat. Add lamb (rinsed and patted dry) and fry until golden-brown on all sides. Season generously with salt and pepper on all sides. Add broth and bake 3-3.5 hours.

3.

Meanwhile, peel shallots and garlic. After lamb has baked 2 hours, scatter shallots, garlic, and rosemary around lamb. Turn lamb and add additional broth as needed.

4.

When lamb is done, remove from roasting pan and wrap in aluminum foil while preparing sauce. Transfer pan juices to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thicken with a little cornstarch mixed with water, if desired.

5.

Remove foil from lamb and serve whole on a platter, or slice and serve with sauce on plates.
