Cypriot Slowed Cooked Lamb/Goat

This is a recipe from a friends Cypriot Nanna – sorry don’t remember the proper name for it. This is just 1 version often the main spice is cumin but I like this version best. The family had an outside traditional wood burning oven so she would usually make 3-4 legs of meat at a time and invite friends and family over. I have cut it down to serve 6. If using goat you may need 2 legs as kid legs are usually only small. I don’t know whether the addition of the cheese was a family querk but that is how she made it. I have been told by other Cypriots that adding the cheese is not right.
