Ingredients Lamb from East Serbia:
- Lamb (the star of the show)
- Onions
- Garlic
- Carrots
- Potatoes
- Tomatoes
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme)
- Paprika
- White wine (and definitely a glass for the chef)
Preparation:
- Lamb Spa Treatment: Grab that tender lamb and pamper it with salt, pepper and paprika. Allow it to marinade while you fix the vegetables. This lamb needs some loving care!
- Veggie Wonderland: Cut up the onions, garlic, carrots and potatoes. Scatter them in a big tin pan like planting veggies in a garden. For colour and excitement add tomatoes.
- Lamb Landing: Place your seasoned lamb right in the middle of your veggie wonderland. Remember that it’s all about the lamb here; it's supposed to be at center stage.
- Herb Heaven: Sprinkle fresh rosemary and thyme over everything. These herbs are like godmothers to the cabbage patch—magic wands waving enchantment all around.
- Drizzle and Sizzle: Drizzle olive oil on every inch of lamb and veggies without sparing any spot; we want them drenched in it’s deliciousness. Splash some white wine (for added flavour) don’t forget to top yourself up too–chef’s perk!
- Roast to Perfection: Put this creation into a pre-heated 180°C (350°F) oven. Roast for about 1,5-2 hours occasionally basting with the pan juices. The kitchen will smell so good that you may have to barricade the doors to keep your neighbours at bay!
- Final Touches: Take the dish out of the oven when lamb is tender and veggies are slightly browned. Let it stand for a few minutes; its been working hard.
- Serve and Savour: Slice the meat then serve it together with roasted vegetables. A glass of Serbian wine plus some crusty bread, which you can use to soak up all those succulent juices, make an excellent combination with this meal.
