  1. Rub the lamb with a little olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  2. In a large frying pan, add enough olive oil to cover the bottom, and sauté the onion lightly over medium heat using a wooden spoon until it starts to soften. Add the liver (and lungs) and continue to sauté until lightly browned. Stir in mushrooms, raisins, juice from the tomatoes, salt, pepper, and bulgur. Reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  3. Preheat oven to 390F (200C).

  4. Stuff the lamb stomach cavity with the stuffing and sew it up with trussing needle and string. Place in a deep roaster, large enough to hold the lamb and fit in the oven, and roast at 390F (200C) for 3 hours.

  5. Yield: serves 6-8 Note: The lamb's head and bottom part of the hind legs are removed to enable the lamb to fit in a roasting pan.
