  1. Oven method: If cooking in the oven, preheat the oven to 155°C fan/Gas Mark 3½.  
  2. Place everything, except for the lemon and parsley, into a large ovenproof casserole pot. Season with 1 tsp flaked sea salt and plenty of black pepper and stir everything together well.  
  3. Cover the surface with a sheet of baking parchment before securing the lid tightly.  
  4. Cook for 2½ hours, or until the lamb is beautifully tender and the potatoes are cooked through.  
  5. Finish with the lemon zest and parsley just before serving.  
  6. Serve with pan fried broccoli, crusty bread or a crisp green salad.
  7. Slow cooker method: Add everything except the tomatoes (it will be too watery) lemon zest and parsley to a 4.7-litre slow cooker.
  8. Cook on Low for 6–7 hours until the lamb is falling apart. Finish with the lemon zest and parsley.
