Directions
Slow Roast Leg of Lamb, Variation of a recipe I found on the ABC site. They included a serving suggestion but there are plenty of great sauces on RecipeZaar so I omitted that section. Personally I served with Recipe#174543 but thought I’d leave this as an easy to prepare basic techique you can adapt yourself., peter, this was my first leg of lamb. I bought from a local farm so this is humanely raised lamb we are talking about. Your preparation is stunning!! you are right that the aroma it creates while cooking with coriander and cumin is so decadent. I love my leg of lamb and what a tremendous joy to eat it on the Easter vigil and more so on Easter day. Brilliant recipe. The simplicity and result cannot be matched. I couldn’t imagine eating a more delicious lamb. Divine!, I too, am a chef retired and to be honest, I’m astonished at the number of people who have never eaten lamb with cumin or coriander… these are classic curry flavours, and lamb – or mutton – is a staple meat for some indian dishes. Does this mean nobody has ever cooked a lamb curry, either – ? Goodness…. For fluid, used 500ml water, 200ml red wine, 2 heaped tbsps shredless marmalade, then added one shallot, quartered, 2 cloves of garlic, crushed but not skinned, fresh ginger about the size of a thumb – use only half peeled and sliced into chunks and fresh rosemary – taken off the stalk, but the needles left whole. About 1 tbsp. Coated the lamb in a good drizzle of olive oil, then topped it with freshly roasted and ground cumin, coriander 2 cloves of pounded garlic and the remainder of the ginger, finely grated. Added freshly ground pink Himalayan salt. Great meal. And the gravy was out of this world! Strained the liquor, reduced it, added butter. Amazing. Served with Pommes de Terre Dauphinoises.
