1 tbsp olive oil
4 1/2 lb lamb shoulder
1 None onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 (13.5 oz) cans diced tomatoes
1 cup red wine
2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped, plus extra leaves to serve
2 tsp brown sugar

1
Preheat oven to 325u00b0F.
2
In a large Dutch oven, heat oil over high heat. Brown lamb for 5-6 mins. Set aside. Add onion and garlic. Saute for 2-3 mins, until tender. Add tomato paste and cook for 1 min. Return lamb to pan along with tomatoes, 2 cups water, wine, basil and sugar. Bring to a simmer. Cover and bake for 3 hours, until meat is falling off the bone. Remove lamb from pan and skim any fat off surface. When cool enough to handle, shred meat. Return meat to sauce.
3
Meanwhile, to make the ricotta sauce, whisk together ricotta, sour cream, eggs and 2/3 of the cheese. Season.
4
Reduce oven to 350u00b0F. Spread 3/4 cup lamb sauce in a shallow baking dish. Cover with a layer of lasagna sheets, cutting to fit. Top with 1/2 of the remaining lamb sauce and 1/3 of the ricotta sauce. Repeat layers, finishing with ricotta sauce. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake for 45-50 mins, until bubbling and golden.
5
Scatter extra basil leaves over top. Slice and serve.
