🥘 Ingredients

Shoulder of lamb, forcemeat No. 417, trimmings of veal or beef, 2 onions, 1/2 head of celery, 1 faggot of savoury herbs, a few slices of fat bacon, 1 quart of stock No. 105.

👨‍🍳 Method

Take the blade-bone out of a shoulder of lamb, fill up its place with forcemeat, and sew it up with coarse thread. Put it into a stewpan with a few slices of bacon under and over the lamb, and add the remaining ingredients. Stew very gently for rather more than 2 hours. Reduce the gravy, with which glaze the meat, and serve with peas, stewed cucumbers, or sorrel sauce.

A lesson in doing more with less

I tried this Shoulder Of Lamb Stuffed recipe this week and I was thrilled to learn how a little sewn-up forcemeat could transform a humble shoulder into a showstopper. I've always been fascinated by the art of stuffing, and this vintage method was a delight to execute. The coarse thread, a nod to the era, added a rustic charm to the process. One detail that surprised me was the use of a faggot of savoury herbs. I've used fresh herbs in countless dishes, but tying them into a little bundle for slow stewing was a new technique for me. It imbued the gravy with a deep, aromatic flavour that I found utterly compelling. This dish is perfect for the weeknight cook who wants to elevate their meal with a touch of historical flair and some satisfying kitchen craft. The result was a tender, flavourful lamb dish that paired beautifully with the suggested sorrel sauce. I'll be keeping this one in my repertoire.
