VIETNAMESE LAMB
Though far less glorified than rib chops or legs, lamb shoulder is explosively delicious and juicy - also, cheap. Like the shoulders of pigs and cows, it is a hardworking muscle rippled with intramuscular fat, which makes it ideal for stewing or braising. But the shoulder's not that hardworking, which keeps it tender enough to be subjected to the shorter blasts of heat typically reserved for more elegant cuts. Here it's marinated in a Vietnamese marinade overnight, then broiled or grilled into fantastic submission.

Steps:
- Preheat the Oven to 150c/fan 120c/gas 2
- lightly oil a roast tin with a little oil
- place the shoulder of lamb into the roasting tin & spread half of the jar of Chinese 5 spice paste over the shoulder
- cook for approx 2 1/2 hours then turn over & cover the side of the shoulder with the remaining paste
- roast for approx another 2 1/2 hours, this is rather general as you can keep this in the oven all day in a low oven and the fat from the Shoulder will melt into the meat & keep it moist for several hours.
- serve with, if you have them, chinese pancakes or tortilla wraps, hoisin sauce, sliced spring onions, cucumber & spredded lettuce. Enjoy
