👨🍳 Zubereitung
- 1
In a food processor, blend the tomato, garlic, green onions, parsley, olive oil, and spices (cumin, turmeric, coriander, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, salt) until a thick paste forms. If the marinade is too thick, add a splash of water.
💡 Profitipps: Marinating overnight is recommended for best flavor. - 2
Pat the lamb shoulder dry. Make deep slits (about 3-4 cm long) all over the lamb. Massage the marinade into the lamb, ensuring it gets into the slits. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.

In a large Dutch oven or a deep baking dish, place the quartered onion, whole garlic cloves, bay leaves, cracked cardamom pods, whole cloves, and dried lemons (if using). Pour in 1 cup of water.

Place the marinated lamb shoulder on top of the vegetables in the baking dish.
💡 Profitipps: Ensure the lamb is well-coated with marinade. - 6
Cover the lamb tightly with parchment paper, followed by two layers of aluminum foil, sealing the edges securely. This creates a steam-tight environment.
💡 Profitipps: Double-check that there are no gaps for steam to escape. - 7
Bake for 3 to 5 hours, or until the lamb is extremely tender and falls off the bone. Cooking time will vary depending on the size and cut of the lamb.
⏱️ 3-5 hours💡 Profitipps: Check for tenderness after 3 hours. If the bottom of the dish is dry, add a little more water. - 8
For the last 30 minutes of cooking, remove the foil and parchment paper to allow the lamb to brown and crisp up slightly.
