Title: Slow-Cooked Lamb Shoulder w/Green Beans
Categories: Lamb/mutton, Vegetables, Herbs, Chilies
Yield: 5 servings
3 lb Boneless lamb shoulder
- roast
Salt & pepper
1 tb Rough chopped garlic
4 Rosemary sprigs
6 Bay leaves
1/2 ts Ground allspice
1/2 ts Ground cloves
1 tb Extra-virgin olive oil; more
- for drizzling
1 lb Green beans
Red-pepper flakes
2 tb Chopped parsley, garnish
2 tb Chopped dill; garnish
2 tb Chopped mint; garnish
Prepare a covered gas or charcoal grill for medium
indirect heat, or heat an oven to 325 degrees.
If the roast is tied, remove netting or string. Lay the
roast on a work surface and open it flat. Sprinkle the
insides with salt, pepper and chopped garlic. Reroll the
roast (no need to tie it), leaving the garlic inside.
Place the roast seam side down in a small roasting pan
or 9" X 13" baking dish just big enough to hold it.
Tuck rosemary and bay leaves under the meat. Season the
top with salt and pepper, allspice and cloves. Drizzle
with olive oil and smear the oil over the surface. Add 1
cup water to the pan.
Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and place in a
covered gas or charcoal grill, on set up for medium
indirect heat, or in a 325-degree oven. Cook until the
meat is fork-tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. (Be sure to
remove the foil after about 2 1/2 hours, so that the
meat browns.) From time to time, check that thereтАЩs
still about 2 inches of liquid at the bottom of the
roasting pan, adding more water as necessary. When the
meat is done, set aside until cool enough to handle,
then tear into large shreds, reserving any of the
remaining concentrated pan juices and skim the fat.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to the boil and add
salt. Blanch beans for about 1 minute, then remove
spread out on a baking sheet to cool.
When ready to serve, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a
wide skillet over medium heat. When hot, add blanched
beans and cook for 1 minute, then add a pinch of
red-pepper flakes, the pan juices and shredded meat, and
cook just a bit longer, until everything is warmed
through, tossing well. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle with parsley, dill
and mint.
