This pulled lamb recipe is crazy delicious. It makes enough for 20 pancakes and is normally served as a starter - but it can feed 5 to 10 people, depending on whether it's a main course or as part of a feast. Enjoy!

Place the red onion slices into a dutch oven or casserole dish. Place the lamb and marinade into dish. Fold a large piece of foil down to just larger than the dutch oven lid; this will act a padded seal. Cover dish with foil and place lid on top to create a tight seal. Place in oven and roast for 1 hour 30 minutes at 160°C.
