- Place a piece of baking paper, cut to fit, on top of the liquid to protect the meat. Cover with the lid.
- To thicken, mix together 25g softened butter and 25g flour to make a paste.
- Roughly chop the herbs if leaves are large.
- Farro is an ancient grain that looks similar to pearl barley but is dried in such a way that once cooked becomes nutty and chewy. If you can't find farro use pearl barley instead.

Rub 2 tablespoons oil over the diced lamb shoulder. In batches, place lamb in the hot pan and brown on both sides, transferring to a casserole dish as you go.
Lower the heat and add the remaining oil. Add the onion, celery and garlic and cook until they just begin to colour. Deglaze the pan with a good splash of sherry, turn up the heat and reduce liquid by half. Add the stock, bay leaf and thyme and season with freshly ground pepper. Bring up to a gentle simmer then pour over the lamb. Cover the dish and place in the oven to cook for 2 hours until the lamb is very tender.
Half an hour before the end of cooking, remove lamb from the oven. Add the anchovies and whisk in the butter and flour paste. Return to the oven to finish cooking.
Meanwhile, cook the farro in boiling water until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain then lightly season.
Serve lamb with farro and top with the mixed olives and fresh herbs.
