    • Place the lamb on top of the vegetables.
    • Drizzle the olive oil over the meat and season generously with salt and pepper. Pour the stock and water into the dish. It won’t be completely submerged but it’s ok.
    • Cover tightly with tin foil and roast 4.5-5 hours.
    • Check doneness by seeing if the lamb falls off the bone and shreds when levered gently with a fork.
    • Remove the lamb from the pan and spoon sauces over the meat and allow to rest for 20 minutes
    • Carve and serve as desired
