- 30 g of butter
- 30 g of oil
- 1 cup hot nut broth
- salt and pepper
- sprigs of fresh parsley
Preparing the saddle of lamb in the oven
Wash the lamb saddle, dry it and tie it with a colorless twine so that it keeps its shape during cooking.
Spread the meat with butter and put it in a pan with high edges, then pour the oil over it and sprinkle with salt and freshly ground pepper.
Put the container in the preheated oven and cook the saddle for about 45 minutes, turning it frequently and wetting it with the cooking base, adding a few ladles of broth, if necessary, so as not to dry it too much.
When the meat is cooked, remove it from the pan and detach the pulp from the bone carcass, using a very sharp knife and taking care not to break it.
