How to Make Turmeric-Roasted Lamb Shoulder and Carrots

1. Season the Lamb

Begin by placing the lamb shoulder in a large bowl. Sprinkle it generously with ground turmeric, ensuring each side is coated evenly. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, and drizzle with olive oil to help the seasoning adhere. Your cue for moving on is when the lamb is uniformly dressed in its vibrant turmeric coat.

2. Prepare the Carrots

While the lamb absorbs the flavors, turn your attention to the carrots. Peel them and slice them lengthwise if they're large, keeping smaller ones whole. This ensures even cooking. Once prepped, lay the carrots in a roasting pan, creating a bed for the seasoned lamb.

3. Roast the Lamb and Carrots

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the seasoned lamb shoulder on top of the carrots in the roasting pan. Roast in the oven for about 2 to 3 hours, or until the lamb is tender and the carrots are caramelized. The aroma of turmeric will fill your kitchen, signaling that your dish is nearing perfection. Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving, allowing the juices to redistribute through the meat.
