ONE POT BRAISED TENDER LAMB SHOULDER CHOPS AND VEGETABLES

Tender lamb joint in the slow cooker with vegetables and gravy. One pot and easy – all you need to do is make some Yorkshire pud to go with it and add some mint sauce. Seriously delicious. Serves 2 with enough meat for leftovers or increase the veg and it would serve 4.

This one pot braised lamb shoulder chops and vegetables is a delicious, comforting & easy one pot meal perfect for dinner on a cold night. Full of fantastic flavor.

Before I go any further, Happy New Year! May it be a good one. Now that’s out the way, let me get to the deliciousness. I’ll admit, these braised lamb shoulder chops came about a bit by accident. But it was definitely a happy accident, as we instantly loved it.

ONE POT BRAISED LAMB SHOULDER CHOPS AND VEGETABLES

Ingredients
Serves: 2 

  • 3 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 12 small new potatoes
  • about 700g boneless lamb shoulder joint
  • salt and pepper
  • 400ml lamb stock (I used a stock cube)
  • 2 tablespoons Bisto® gravy granules
  • mint sauce or jelly to serve
  • Yorkshire pudding to serve

Method

  1. Turn the slow cooker onto low. Place the carrots and potatoes in the bottom. Remove any string from the lamb joint and place on top. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Pour over the hot Tender lamb stock, cover and cook for about 8 to 10 hours.
  3. When ready to serve, remove the lamb carefully (use 2 forks to lift out as it will fall apart – no need to carve, just pull the meat apart). Make up about 120ml boiling water with the Bisto and ladle in a few ladlefuls of the juice from the slow cooker to taste.
  4. Plate up the lamb and vegetable and serve with Yorkshire pudding, mint sauce and gravy.

Use for leftovers

leftover lamb is great in sandwhiches with mint sauce.
