SLOW-COOKED LAMB SHOULDER WITH ROASTED CAULIFLOWER AND GARLIC

Preparation:

Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 3½ hours

1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Rub the lamb shoulder with celery salt and 1 Tbsp avocado oil. Place in an oven tray and bake for 30 minutes. Pour in the sherry, cover with foil, reduce heat to 150, and bake for a further 3 hours.

3. Fry the cavalo nero in the olive oil in a pan over a high heat until just wilted, then mix with the parsley and almonds. Season with salt and serve with the cauliflower mix, shredded lamb and onion.
