Ingredients
- 2 x 400 ml cans coconut milk
- 2 x 70 g jars Woolworths Blue Elephant yellow curry paste
- 1 t fish sauce
- 1 t soya sauce
- 6 bay leaves
- 3 Woolworths green finger chillies, halved

Method
1 Preheat the oven to 150°C. Mix the coconut milk, curry paste, fish sauce, soya sauce, chillies and bay leaves.
2 Place the lamb in a deep baking tray lined with baking paper. Pour over the sauce, then cover tightly with baking paper and foil.
3 Roast for 5 hours, or until soft and falling apart. Remove the baking paper and foil. Turn the oven’s grill to high and brown the lamb under the grill until nicely golden and crisp, this should only take a few minutes.
4 Allow to rest, then slice and serve with the pineapple raita. Garnish with fresh coriander.
