Directions
Mean’s Lamb You Can Eat With a Spoon, This is one of the most succulent lamb dishes you will ever taste Long slow cooking makes the dish This is an adopted recipe from the RecipeZaar account, and I am delighted to be the new owner of such a winning recipe The size of your leg of lamb is everything in this recipe so please use the Zaar measurement converter ( bottom of the page) to calculate your cooking time as if will vary greatly if you have a very small or very large leg of lamb (For example 2 8 kg leg = 6 1 lb and would cook for just over 6 hours after the browning stage) If you like this sort of meat, then I’d also recommend my recipe New Zealand High Country Sheep Station Roast Lamb #186000 because it gives a similar result with fewer steps (admittedly without the excellent gravy though) Since my home country that my DH jokingly calls Kiwistaan has an excellent reputation for Lamb, I will be assigning this one to ZWT REGION: New Zealand , This is very tasty It does take a bit of time, and for me is not super easy and I do manage to make a mess usually but it’s worth it , This was the first time I cooked lamb and it came out wonderful used a 10lb boneless lamb so I needed to adjust the recipe quantities I also needed to make substitutions for the shallots and pancetta I added extra onions and few pinch of garlic powder in place of the shallots and used plain American bacon chopped in place of the pancetta I cooked the lamb in my new Ninja crockpot that also works as an oven, cranked it up to 325 degrees for 2 hours and then dropped it down to 275 until I could pull the lamb apart with a fork
