- Preheat the oven to 80°C (176°F) for slow cooking the lamb confit.
- Season the lamb shoulder with ras el hanout, garlic, fine salt, ground cumin, espelette, ground white pepper, and olive oil. Add candied lemon and cover with foil. Cook in the oven for 12 hours.
- Slice the courgettes, tomatoes, and aubergines. Layer them in a baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with thyme, and top with grated Parmigiano reggiano. Grill until golden brown.
