1
Preheat oven to 300u00b0F
2
Make many small incisions in lamb, place slivers of garlic in each incision.
3
Rub lamb well with olive oil, season with salt & pepper. (At this point I would brown the lamb on all sides-but that's not necessary.)
4
Place it in Dutch oven and add onions, carrots, bouquet garni, garlic, wine. Put lid on Dutch oven.
5
Combine flour and water, make a 'caulk' and use it to seal the lid to the dutch oven.
6
Place it in the 300 degree oven and cook for 7 hours. Yes, 7 hours. (no peeking--leave it alone.).
7
Remove the Dutch oven and break the seal. You don't have to eat the cooked flour paste.
