Ingredients
- Leg of lamb

Instructions
- Cut an X in the top and bottom of each tomato. Place in a large pan and boil until you can peel the skin off, then chop or mash roughly.
- Season flour with salt and pepper and lightly coat the lamb.
- In a hot pan, add the oil then sear the lamb until lightly browned.
- Put lamb in SC.
- In the same pan, deglaze the pan with a splash of red wine, scraping all the browned lamb from the bottom.
- Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft and translucent.
- Add the carrots, zucchinis and tomatoes to pan. Pour in the rest of the wine. - This is where you can use that extra tin of tomatoes instead of all the red wine for the sauce. Simmer for 10 mins
- Pour over lamb. Put SC on low and cook for around 8-9 hours.
- Remove the lamb, and a serve of the veggies to be eaten with the lamb.
- Blitz the rest of the veg and juices to make a gravy.
