Method

Step 1 of 8

Combine oregano, garlic, yoghurt and half the oil in a bowl. Season.

Step 2 of 8

Place lamb in a baking dish and spread half the yoghurt mixture over lamb to coat well. Reserve remaining mixture for serving. Chill overnight. Return to room temperature before cooking.

Step 3 of 8

Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a roasting pan with 2 sheets of foil to cover base and sides, leaving enough to seal. Line foil similarly with baking paper.

Step 4 of 8

Heat remaining oil in a frying pan. Add onion and cook gently for 8 minutes or until soft. Transfer to roasting pan.

Step 5 of 8

Place lamb onto onion and season. Pour wine around lamb. Cover with baking paper and foil, sealing edges well. Bake in oven for 2 hours.

Step 6 of 8

Open foil and paper. Add potatoes, turning in pan juices. Lay lemon on top of lamb. Re-seal foil tightly and return to the oven for another 11/2 hours until lamb is very tender. Open foil and paper and cook for a further 30 minutes to colour lamb.

Step 7 of 8

Meanwhile, make the yoghurt sauce. Combine all ingredients in a bowl with reserved yoghurt mixture.

Step 8 of 8

Transfer lamb to a serving plate with potatoes. Garnish with olives and parsley and serve with yoghurt sauce.
