Greek Roast Leg Of Lamb With Potatoes

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Great recipe, making it for my Pascha dinner for the second time this year. One question: ingredients list includes Dijon mustard but it is not referenced anywhere in the directions. Does it go in the marinade or in with the crushed garlic and herbs? As I realized it too late for the marinade, am adding it to the crushed garlic.
