Braised Lamb in the Style of Bairrada

In a bowl, prepare a mixture with the bacon, salt, mashed garlic and a good portion of pepper

Mix everything very well until you get a non-greasy dough (if desired, add pork rind)

Make some incisions on the surface of the lamb, rub it with the mixture above, introducing it thoroughly through the incisions made

Close these incisions

Put it in the oven at high heat

Turn it frequently so that it bakes evenly

Around it, place small potatoes with skin and drizzle them with the sauce that forms during roasting

Drizzle the lamb as well; when it's almost done, remove from the oven to cool

Put it back in the oven and drizzle with white wine from Bairrada

The best accompaniment is roasted potatoes in spicy sauce.
