Directions
Roast Leg of Lamb, A simple recipe with sensational flavor! I’ve adopted this recipe as it didn’t have a loving owner I have made it myself though and must say it makes an impressive sunday roast! Instead of using dried rosemary, you can also use fresh sprigs and insert them into the cuts with the garlic slivers , Cooking to 175-180 degrees will ruin the meat Lamb is meant to be served medium-rare Remove it from the oven at about 135 degrees and allow to rest tented for at least 30 minutes

If You Also Want Delicious Rich Gravy, Place a 1 1/2 Cups of Lamb or Beef Stock in the Bottom of the Pan Before You Put the Lamb in the Oven, Making Sure That the Rack Sits Above the Liquid and the Meat Doesn't Touch It. You Can Also Add a Sprig or Two of Rosemary to It and If You Want Baste the Lamb a Couple of Times While It's Roasting. Just Before Serving Bring the Liquid to a Simmer on the Stove Top, Making Sure You Whisk It Well and Scrape All the Bits from the Sides and the Bottom of the Pan. If You Want More Gravy You Can Add Some Extra Stock or Some of the Water You Have Cooked Your Vegetables Inches Mix 1tbsp of Cornflour With 2tbsp of Water and Whisk It Into the Stock. Simmer Until Thickened and You Have a Wonderful Gravy. |
