Sear lamb in hot oil and remove. Place all dry ingredients in an ovenproof dish deep enough to hold lamb. Add lamb and wine and add stock to just cover. Bring to boil and cover. Place in oven on low light to simmer for 1 hour. Remove lid and continue cooking for 1 hour. Remove from oven and lift out lamb. Strain stock and add lamb back to stock. Correct seasoning. Serve or cool in stock and store in refrigerator. To reheat, warm lamb for 20 min in stock at a gentle simmer
