METHOD

1. 1) Preheat the oven to 160°C. Heat the oil in a flameproof casserole over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and brown on all sides. Remove lamb and set aside

1. 2.) Reduce heat to medium-low and cook the onion, garlic and ginger, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until softened. Stir through the flour, then add the stock, sauces, zest and juice. Return lamb to casserole, cover surface closely with baking paper, then cover casserole with a lid.

1. 3.) Transfer to the oven and cook for 4 hours. Remove lid and baking paper and cook for a further 35-40 minutes until lamb is tender and starting to fall off the bone.

1. 4.) Transfer lamb to a plate and rest, loosely covered with foil. Skim any fat from the surface of the sauce. Place casserole over medium-high heat and cook for 5 minutes or until sauce has thickened slightly.

1. 5.) Combine the herbs, spring onion and chilli in a bowl and gently toss to combine.

1. 6.) Cut or tear the lamb into chunks, then discard the bone

1. 7.) Serve the lamb in fresh sliders with a simple salad. Drizzle the sauce over the lamb just before serving.
