Margaret Everett, Grand Cache, Alberta

 

Ingredients:

6-9 lb of Alberta Lamb, 12 garlic cloves, halved 3 onions, coarsely chopped 3 carrots sliced, 2 Tbsp. oil, salt & pepper, bay leaf, 1 cup white wine

Method:
Make 24 small, deep cuts in the leg of lamb and push in the garlic halves. Put the oil, onions, and carrots into a large casserole with the salt & pepper and bay leaf. Place over a medium heat and when the oil is very hot, add the lamb and brown on all sides. Pour in the wine and enough water to cover the meat. Bring to a boil, cover and place in an oven preheated to 325F. Cook for 3 hours or until tender. Transfer the lamb to a serving platter, degrease the liquid, and then reduce over a high heat to sauce- consistency.
