Lamb shoulder in lemon-mint marinade
Frankly, I am in my life tried a lot of options marinades for lamb: and friends and foes, and not very successful. And still could not find IT, the one and only. This is a very special meat and, accordingly, the marinade for the lamb is not similar to the marinade for pork, beef or chicken. For many years I, like a medieval alchemist changed the ingredients, proportions, texture, etc., adding a pinch of one thing after another. And then it happened! Put on Your court the product of their research.

9. Put into the package and leave the meat in the refrigerator at least 4 hours. I marinated in the morning, preparing the evening. During these 10 hours a couple of times turned the bag so the marinade evenly covers the blade.

10. Get our lamb and remove from it the excess marinade, because the yoghurt in the process of heat treatment will give plenty of fluids, and we still need baked, not stewed lamb. Put the meat in the sleeve for baking, not forgetting carefully to make 3-4 small holes at the top. I once forgot, so I bloated the package is soldered firmly to the upper heating element – hardly tore off. ))
