Herb Farm Roast For Leg Of Lamb Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven so the lamb will sit in the middle of the oven.
• Peel 6 of the cloves of garlic and place them in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and butter. Process until the garlic and rosemary are finely minced. Thoroughly coat the top and sides of the lamb with the rosemary mixture. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Toss the potatoes and remaining unpeeled garlic in a bowl with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place in the bottom of a large roasting pan. Place the lamb on top of the potatoes. Roast for 20 minutes. Turn the heat down to 350 degrees F and roast for another 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until a meat thermometer registers 130 to 135 degrees F for medium-rare. Place the lamb on a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice and serve with the potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Season lamb with salt and pepper. Make 1-inch slits all over; place a sliver of garlic in each. Rub 2 tablespoons mustard over lamb; coat evenly with thyme and rosemary, patting gently.
• Rub oil over bottom of roasting pan; cover with herb bunches. Place lamb on top. Roast 20 minutes; reduce heat to 375 degrees. Add onions, carrots, celery, and potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Roast until meat thermometer inserted near center, avoiding bone, reads 140 degrees, about 70 minutes. Transfer lamb and vegetables to a platter; let rest 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make sauce: Knead flour and butter together. Pour off fat; place pan over medium heat. Add wine; reduce by half. Add remaining mustard and stock. Stir; reduce slightly. Strain into a saucepan; simmer. Add butter mixture in small pieces, whisking constantly. Remove from heat; season with salt and pepper. Garnish with herbs.

Steps:

• Prep: Mix the stuffing to combine the ingredients. Rub the lamb with the mixture. Reserve the solids and most of the liquid for the stuffing. Tie the roast and refrigerate overnight.
• Browning: In a large pan, combine the dry browning ingredients and rub the meat. Heat the oil in the pan and brown the roast on all sides. Deglaze, and add to the roasting pan.
• Roasting: Preheat the oven to 225°F Rub the herbs onto the roast. Place the roast in a pan. Add liquid of choice, apple, pineapple, stout beer, Madeira are all good choices. You can use water at first and add flavor later in the roast. You can baste or rotate the roast. Basting maintains a better presentation of the herb crust. Rotating improves flavor and moisture. You can always finish with fresh herbs. Cook to 145F minimum temperature. Note, you can remove the meat at 5 degrees early as the temperature will rise during the rest. https://www.fsis.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsis/topics/food-safety-education/get-answers/food-safety-fact-sheets/meat-preparation/focus-on-lambfrom-farm-to-table/CT_Index.
• Finishing: Remove the roast and let rest at least 120°F This retains the juice and tenderness of the meat. Add liquid to the pan as needed to deglaze. Thicken to make a gravy as desired.
• Notes:.
• If roasting vegetables, you will want to return them to an oven at 450F to properly brown them.
• Vadouvan is an exotic spice that works well with Lamb. Use sparingly if you can find it.

Steps:

• Place cubed potatoes in the bottom of the slow cooker. In a small bowl, mix the salt, garlic, lemon zest and rosemary together and rub mixture on lamb. Brown the lamb in a large skillet using the oil and then transfer to slow cooker. Pour in the wine. Cook on low 10-12 hours, or high 5-6 hours.

Steps:

• Mix wine, oil, garlic, herbs and seasonings. Pour over lamb in large resealable plastic bag; seal bag. Refrigerate 2 hours or overnight to marinate, turning occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Remove lamb from marinade; discard marinade. Place lamb on rack in roasting pan.
• Bake 50 minutes to 1 hour or until meat thermometer reaches 160°F (medium). Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Use a sharp knife to make little slits all over the lamb, then insert a slice of garlic into each hole. Tip the onions and carrot into a large flameproof roasting tin, then place the lamb on top and season. Pour 250ml water into the base of the tin and roast in the oven for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, make the crust by mixing together all the ingredients and seasoning well. Remove the lamb from the oven and turn the heat down to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Brush the lamb all over with the mustard, then pack on the crust in a thick layer - don't worry if any falls in the tin, this will be used in the gravy later (you probably won't use the entire crust, so set aside what's left for later). Return the lamb to the oven and cook for a further 1 hr 30 mins. Check the lamb during cooking and add more water to the base of the tin if it dries out.
• Remove the lamb from the tin, cover lightly with foil and leave to rest for 30-40 mins - if covered too tightly, the crust will go soggy.
• To make the gravy, put the roasting tin with the vegetables still in it directly on the heat and whisk in the flour. Cook for 1 min, then add the wine, scraping any flour from the bottom of the tin. Let it bubble for 1 min, then pour in the stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer gently for 10-15 mins until thickened, stirring in a little of the reserved crust for a thicker gravy. Strain the gravy through a sieve into a pan, discarding the vegetables left in the sieve. Add mustard to taste and stir through the butter. Keep warm until ready to serve.
