How to Make Lamb Tandoori Recipe?

• First, burn the feathers on the ends of your lamb arm, if any.
• Thin some of the fat on the upper part and edges of the lamb arm as desired.
• Make shallow scratches on the fatty upper part of the lamb shoulder with a knife.
• Mix olive oil, crushed garlic and spices in a small bowl.
• Pour the mixture over the lamb shoulder and massage with your hands to thoroughly penetrate the sauce into the meat.
• To wrap the lamb arm, first wet the wax paper in long pieces in 3 layers under water and squeeze.
• Spread the papers on top of each other on the counter to form a large area, place the lamb in the middle and wrap it tightly.
• Lay aluminum foil of the same width on the counter and cover it with the lamb shoulder foil you just wrapped. Place the foil with the seam facing upwards and apply another layer of foil to the seam.
• After wrapping the lamb tightly, place it on the baking rack with the fatty side at the bottom and the seam up.
• Place a small tray or bowl on the bottom of the oven preheated to 220 degrees and fill it with hot water. If you run out of water during cooking, you can add it.
• Place the lamb shoulder in the oven. After 2.5 hours at 220 degrees, lower the oven to 120 degrees and bake for 1 more hour.
• Carefully remove the cooked lamb shoulder from the oven, open it from the top and separate it from the bones using tongs.
• If you want to eat the lamb meat more fried, place the meat pieces in the oven tray, pour the remaining water over them and fry them in a high-temperature oven for about 5 minutes.
• If you wish, you can serve your cooked tandoori with rice, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes or pita. Enjoy your meal.
