Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). In a large pan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and add the sliced onions. Cook until the onions are softened and caramelized, stirring occasionally.
2
In a separate pan, brown the lamb shoulder over medium-high heat, then set it aside. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the pan and cook the sliced carrots until they are tender.
3
In a large ceramic dish, create a layer of sliced potatoes. Add a layer of cooked lamb, followed by a layer of caramelized onions. Repeat this process until all the ingredients are used up, finishing with a layer of potatoes on top.
4
Pour the stock over the hotpot and cover it with a lid. Bake in the preheated oven for 2-3 hours, or until the meat is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
