Easy vegetable and lamb stew recipe. Cubed lamb shoulder with vegetables cooked in the saucepan. Very delicious.

Curving a shoulder of lamb

1. 1. As there is no protruding bone on the shoulder it is not possible to form a handle as with the leg. It is necessary, therefore, to use a carving fork. The fork should be inserted into the joint at the leg end, far enough to provide a firm grip. The meatiest side of lamb shoulder should be toward the carver.
   2. A slicing or ham knife with a 10-inch (25 cm) blade should be used. Hold the joint in the manner as for leg, i.e. at an angle of 45º with the bottom resting on a carving board.
   3. Begin to slice the meatiest side of the joint about halfway along. Cut the slices about one-fourth of an inch thick toward the fork.
   4. Continue to carve the slices as large as possible until the formation of the bone is reached. Rotate the shoulder and carve slices from the smaller spine of the blade.
   5. Turn over the shoulder completely and insert the fork in the upper leg end and continue slicing toward the fork. The last pieces will be quite small but sweet and palatable.
