- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp smoked paprika

Heat the oven to 170C/fan 150C/gas 3. Put the ribs in a roasting tray, fat-side up with enough water to come half way up the ribs, cover with foil and roast for 21/2 hours until the meat is tender. Drain the cooking liquid from the tray.

Put the membrillo in a small saucepan with 1 tbsp of water, bring to the boil and turn off. Turn the oven up to 190C/fan 170/gas 5, brush the lamb with the membrillo glaze and return to the oven, uncovered, for 30 minutes, brushing regularly with more glaze.
