Ingredients
  

  • 1 leg of lamb
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 onions cut in half
  • 1 bulb garlic cut in half
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 sprig rosemary or 1 tbsp dried
  • 1 tbsp stock powder
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • 2 cups water

Method
 

  1. In your slow cooker, add the ½ cup water, onion, garlic, rosemary, bay leaf and stock powder.
  2. Rub the salt all over your lamb leg, then pop it straight into the slow cooker.
  3. Lid on! Cook for 5 hours on HIGH or 10 hours on LOW, until it pulls apart easily with a fork.
  4. Once it’s done, take the lamb out and shred it into chunks or strips.
Let’s make gravy!
  1. Strain the cooking liquid through a sieve into a saucepan, pressing down to squeeze out all that garlicky, oniony goodness.
  2. Skim the fat off the top.
  3. Put your saucepan on the stove, whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
  4. Pour in 2 cups of water, then simmer and stir until it’s thick and luscious. Taste and season if needed (I didn’t add a thing!).
  5. Pour that glorious gravy all over your lamb and get ready for happy faces at the table!
