Instructions
Place your cast-iron pot on the stove over low heat… it will take a while to heat up, so you can start heating it a little before you need it.
Crush the garlic cloves, remove the skin and the germ, and slice them thinly.
Trim the parsley stems, wash the parsley, and either blend it in a food processor or chop it very finely. Set it aside in a bowl with the garlic.
Finely chop the thyme, remove the rosemary leaves, and chop them as well. Add them to the bowl.
Pour 3 tbsp of olive oil into the mixing bowl, mix well, and brush the lamb shoulder with this seasoning.
Here's the most technical part! Roll the shoulder over itself, and tie it up as best you can…
Pour some oil into the casserole dish, and brown the rolled shoulder over medium heat, uncovered, for 15 minutes, turning it frequently so that it browns evenly on all sides.
Add the spring onions, and continue cooking over medium heat, uncovered, turning them regularly so they absorb the cooking juices well, for 10 minutes.
Prepare the broth and pour it into the casserole dish. Sprinkle the dish with a few sprigs of fresh thyme.
Cover and reduce the heat to let it simmer for another 20 minutes to achieve medium-rare meat that’s still slightly pink. You can reduce this cooking time if you prefer it even pinker.
Remove from the heat, take off the lid, and let the meat rest for a few minutes before serving. All that’s left to do is slice the roll and serve your guests some nice slices, accompanied by onions and the side dish you’ve chosen to go with this meal.
