Steps:
- Mash the garlic to a paste with a pestle and mortar. Mix with the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, thyme and bay, and season with a little salt and plenty of pepper. Place the lamb in a large porcelain dish. Pour the marinade over the lamb and massage into the meat. Leave the lamb for at least 1 hr at room temperature, or longer in the fridge, but no longer than overnight or the meat will become too soft.
- To cook the lamb, fire up the barbecue, or heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. To cook on the barbecue, wait for the coals to turn ashen, then lay the lamb on the grill and cook for 15 mins on each side for meat that is pink, or 20 mins on each side for well done. To cook in the oven, place the lamb in a shallow roasting tin and roast for 30 mins for pink or 40 mins for well done, turning the lamb halfway through. Leave the meat to rest for 10 mins before carving.
- Meanwhile, make the tzatziki. Coarsely grate the cucumber, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and squeeze out all the liquid. Tip into a bowl with the yogurt, garlic and mint, and mix well. Carve the lamb into thick slices and serve with the tzatziki wrapped up in warm flatbreads.

MOROCCAN BARBECUED LAMB / MECHOUIE
Number Of Ingredients 19
Steps:
- 1. Preheat the grill to medium-high.2. Open out the butterflied leg of lamb on your work surface so the inside is up and season with salt and pepper. Set aside while you prepare the spice butter.3. Combine the butter, garlic, mint leaves, coriander, paprika, and cumin in a food processor and process to a smooth paste.4. When ready to cook, spread about one third of the butter mixture over the inside of the lamb. Spread about 1 tablespoon more over the outside surface of the lamb. Arrange the lamb, outer side down, on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs, until cooked to taste, 15 to 20 minutes per side. If the lamb starts to burn, lower the heat to medium (if gas) or move the lamb to a cooler section of the grill (if charcoal). Every 5 minutes, spread the top with some of the remaining spiced butter.5. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Melt the butter in a small, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons vinegar and the mint and bring to a boil, then stir in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until richly flavored and slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and taste for seasoning, adding salt or vinegar as necessary.6. Transfer the lamb to a cutting board and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve the lamb with the sauce and tiny bowls of salt and cumin on the side for seasoning.Serves 8

- Trim away any excess fat from the lamb and open out any thicker areas so that it is all 4-5cm thick – this will help it to cook more evenly.
- In a pestle and mortar, grind the spice seeds to a powder and mix to a paste with the paprika, oil and a pinch of salt. Put the lamb in a dish and rub the paste all over the meat. Cover and set aside for at least 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the cumin salt. Heat a dry frying pan over a high heat, reduce the heat and add the cumin, shaking for a few seconds until aromatic. Tip into a mortar and grind to a coarse powder. Stir in the salt and plenty of black pepper. Set aside.
- If using a charcoal barbecue, light 30-40 minutes before you want to start cooking. If using a gas barbecue, light 10-15 minutes ahead. Put the lamb onto the barbecue, skin-side down, and cook for 10-12 minutes on each side for medium-rare. (Cook for longer if you like.) Lift onto a board, cover with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
