Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 150°C. Place a rack in a large roasting tray. Use a small, sharp knife to make shallow cuts on the surface of lamb. Season. Heat 2 tsp oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Add the lamb and cook, turning, for 5 mins or until browned all over. Remove from heat.

  2. Step 2

    Combine Cajun seasoning, lemon zest, 1 garlic clove, salt and 2 tbs oil in a medium bowl. Add the lamb and turn to coat. Place lamb on rack in the roasting tray. Pour stock into the tray. Cover with foil and roast for 3-31/2 hours or until the lamb is browned and very tender. Remove the foil and shred meat with a fork.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, heat rice following packet directions. Heat remaining oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the celery and cook, stirring, for 5 mins. Add remaining garlic, spring onion and extra Cajun seasoning and cook, stirring, for 2 mins or until fragrant. Add rice, chopped coriander and lemon juice and stir to combine. Season.

  4. Step 4

    Divide rice mixture among tortillas. Top with lamb, capsicum, coriander leaves and a dollop of yoghurt. Roll to enclose filling.
