Lamb Kleftiko with lemon roast potatoes recipe - Recipes - BBC Good Food

Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Put the first 9 ingredients in a small casserole with a lid. Toss everything then season well. Put a double sheet of foil between the pot and lid then put the lid on and scrunch the foil around the pot to make an airtight seal. Cook for 11/2 hours.

Meanwhile cook the potatoes in boiling salty water until just tender then drain well.

After 11/2 hours turn up the heat to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and take off the lid and foil. Put a shallow roasting tin in the oven with 2 tbsp oil for 5 minutes to heat up. Add the potatoes and toss in the hot oil. Keep cooking the lamb and potatoes for another 30 minutes until the potatoes are golden and crisp (take out the lamb after 30 minutes and keep cooking the potatoes if needed). To finish, sprinkle the lamb with the feta and a little more oregano. Toss the crispy potatoes with the lemon zest and sea salt and serve with the lamb.
