Ingredients

• Lamb shoulder - 600 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Greek yogurt - 100 grams
• Garlic - 4 cloves, minced
• Lemon juice - 2 tablespoons
• Cumin powder - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Fresh rosemary - 2 sprigs, chopped
• Fresh thyme - 2 sprigs, chopped
• Water - 150 milliliters

Steps

1. Cut the lamb shoulder into large chunks and place them in a mixing bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, combine olive oil, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, cumin, paprika, black pepper, salt, rosemary, and thyme to form a marinade.
3. Pour the marinade over the lamb chunks and ensure they are well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
4. Preheat your BBQ grill or oven to a low temperature (about 120°C or 250°F).
5. Place the marinated lamb in a roasting pan and add 150 ml of water to keep it moist during cooking.
6. Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil to trap the steam and cook the lamb for approximately 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart.
7. Remove the foil and cook for an additional 20-30 minutes to achieve a crispy exterior.
8. Once cooked, let the lamb rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
