Devilled Shoulder of Lamb with Minted Garden Peas
- Place the lamb in a roasting pan and pour 2cm of water around the meat. This keeps it juicy during cooking.
- Rub the flour into the fat and cook the meat for 40 minutes at 190˚C/gas mark 5.
- Mix all the crust ingredients together. Remove the meat from the oven and cut slits into the fat. Rub the crust into the fat – use the back of a large spoon – and into the slits.
- Cook for a further 40–50 minutes. Allow it to rest for 20 minutes before carving.
- Use the juices to make a little gravy. Pour any liquid and juices into a small saucepan and scrape off any tasty debris from the bottom of the pan; use a little hot water to help you. Bring to the boil.
- Mix a teaspoon of flour or gravy powder with 4 teaspoons of water and pour into the hot sauce; stir until the gravy boils. Serve with the meat in a gravy boat.
- Serve with the minted garden peas and buttered new potatoes.
- For the peas
- Cook the peas until tender in a little boiling salted water.
- Chop the mint leaves until very fine and mix with the butter.
- Drain the peas and place in a serving dish. Add the butter and stir gently to coat the peas
