Today, variations can be found globally, with many cultures adapting it to local ingredients and spices, showcasing its versatility and appeal.

olive oil
🥗Healthier: avocado oil
💰Cheaper: canola oil
Canola oil is cost-effective and neutral in flavor.
Remove the net from the boneless leg of lamb.
Cut the lamb into six large pieces, about one pound each.
Mix together the seasoning: 1 tablespoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon allspice, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon ginger, and 1 teaspoon oregano.
Evenly spread the seasoning mixture over the lamb pieces, focusing on the meat rather than the fat.
Slice the red onion and garlic, avoiding cutting through the root of the onion to reduce tears.
Heat a heavy-duty Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add oil once warm.
Sear the lamb pieces for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.
Add the sliced red onion and garlic to the pot and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened.
Add a little beef broth to deglaze the pot, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom.
Stir in a little tomato paste and 1 teaspoon oregano, then return the lamb pieces to the pot.
Cover the Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid and braise in the oven for 3 to 3.5 hours, until the lamb is shreddable.
After 3.5 hours, check the lamb; it should fall apart easily. If you forgot to add honey earlier, add it now to the braising liquid.
