Ingredients

5 pounds lamb meat
2 pounds potatoes
2 tomatoes
1 apple
2 large onions
rosemary leaves
sea salt-to taste
1 cup white wine or water
5 tbsp sunflower oil

Steps:

Cook the way it is described in the text above for 1,5 to 2 hours. You can uncover it after about 45 minutes and turn the meat on the other side. Cover with bell and hot coals and continue baking. The meat should be nice and golden, the potatoes crispy and vegetables soft.
