Ingredients

2.2kg leg of lamb on the bone

3 cloves garlic, sliced

1/2 tsp olive oil

2 large onions, finely sliced

3 sprigs of thyme, leaves only, plus extra to garnish

2 large potatoes, peeled and finely sliced

1 large celeriac, peeled and finely sliced

300ml chicken stock

Method

1
Pre-heat the oven to 140C/120C Fan/Gas 1. Make small incisions all over the lamb with a sharp knife. Push a sliver of garlic in each hole.
2
Lightly oil a roasting dish. Scatter some onions and thyme over the base. Top with a layer of potato and celeriac. Repeat twice more, finishing with a potato and celeriac layer on top.
3
Pour in the stock and sit the lamb on top. Roast for 4 hours until the meat can be pulled from the bone with a fork. Garnish with thyme.
