Lamb for Learners! Redcurrant and Honey Glazed Lamb (Crock Pot),This is the name that my daughter came up with, for my most requested lamb dish! She did not realise how easy it was to cook, as the results are so sophisticated and special! I have never made it other than in the crock-pot, but I am sure it would cook very well in an AGA or wood burning range……long and slow. This is an ALL YEAR around recipe, as we have cooked this in the summer and served this meltingly tender lamb with salads and crusty bread – as well as in the winter with mountains of mashed potatoes! The redcurrant and honey glaze is sensational, and makes the most divine gravy or sauce. Do not be tempted to use a cheap and low fruit content redcurrant jelly, it gives nowhere near the same taste and results as a high fruit jelly. I always use a leg of lamb for this dish – but I suspect that shoulder of lamb would work extremely well. Be warned……this is a fall off the bone, moist and very succulent way of cooking lamb!!,Okay I’ve never cooked lamb before or lamb lion this recipe was amazing only had 1.5 pounds though try to make smaller. I over cooked meat BUT so tender and thank you for recipe,Didn’t have red currant jelly used black currant jelly was amazing. I wish this site one could add weight so help with ingredients measurement thank you
