Ingredients
4 servings
- 1 1/2 lbs (650gms) lamb neck
- 3 onions
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1/2 cup oatmeal
- salt to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation
- Clean the neck of lamb and remove any fat. Chop onions and crush garlic.
- Place lamb in a large soup pot with all other ingredients plus 10 cups of water. Cook very slowly, stirring occasionally, adding a little water if needed to stop it from thickening too much (if adding vegetables to the soup, increase the amount of water accordingly).
- Cook on a very low heat for 3 1/2 to 4 hours, then taste for salt and adjust if necessary.
- When done, add the juice of a lemon and serve immediately.
