Steps:
- Place the lamb on a sheet pan covered with foil. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, white wine, garlic, salt, black pepper, and thyme leaves. Stir to blend and rub all over the lamb. Cover and place it in the refrigerator to marinate for a few hours or overnight, turning the lamb over from time to time and recoating it with the marinade.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Remove the lamb from the marinade and season on all sides with salt, pepper and olive oil. Reserve the leftover marinade for later use.
- In a roasting pan fitted with a roasting rack place the lamb, fatty side up, on the rack and place it in the center of the oven. . Having the leg elevated off the bottom of the pan will allow for more even roasting. At 425 degrees F, the roast should start to brown fairly quickly.
- After 25 to 30 minutes, lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. I usually count between 12 to 14 minutes per pound of meat (including the weight of the bone) for a roast. When the oven heat is lowered, count about 30 to 40 minutes and then check the inner temperature of the thickest part of the roast with an instant-read thermometer. Cook it to about 130 degrees F. The meat, once it "rests" will be a nice medium rare. Remove the roast and turn it fat side down onto a flat surface to rest. Resting the lamb on the opposite side will help to redistribute the juices. Note: Save the pan drippings.
- Place the roasting pan on the stove over medium low heat. Add the reserved marinade, dry sherry and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. Whisk together and simmer until thick. Transfer the sauce to a gravy boat and serve with lamb.
- Slice the lamb (against the grain) and serve family style.

Steps:
- Marinate the lamb: Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, cumin, oregano, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl; whisk until smooth. Place the lamb on a rimmed baking sheet or in a roasting pan; poke about 10 slits into each side with the tip of a paring knife. Rub the marinade all over the lamb, massaging it into the meat and slits. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Remove the lamb from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature about 1 hour before roasting. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and set a rack in a roasting pan. Wipe any excess marinade off the lamb and season all over with salt and pepper; transfer to the rack. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 130 degrees F to 135 degrees F, about 1 hour 50 minutes. Remove from the oven, transfer to a cutting board and let rest 30 to 45 minutes before carving.
- Meanwhile, make the mint sauce: Combine the mint, parsley, garlic, mustard, capers, lemon juice, sugar, red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender and puree until smooth. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl. Carve the lamb and serve with the sauce.
ROAST LEG OF LAMB WITH BASIL & MINT PESTO

Steps:
- First, make the pesto. Put all the ingredients (except the olive oil and lemon juice) and a pinch of salt into the small bowl of a food processor. Pulse until very finely chopped. While the processor is on, drizzle the olive oil in to make a paste. Tip the pesto into a small bowl and stir in the lemon juice.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the scored lamb leg in a large roasting tin and use half the pesto to generously coat the skin and flesh, pressing it between all the cracks for extra juiciness. Put the rest of the pesto in the fridge, covered with cling film, and remove just before serving.
- Roast the lamb for 1 hr 45 mins. Check during cooking that it's not drying out - if the base of the roasting tin starts to look dry, spread a little more pesto over the top of the lamb.
- Remove the lamb from the tin, cover with foil and leave to rest for 30-40 mins before serving on lemon slices and fresh garden herbs, if you like. Carve at the table and serve with the remaining pesto to drizzle over.

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.

Steps:
- Remove lamb from refrigerator 1 hour before roasting.
- Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C/Gas 6.
- Make small slits just large enough for garlic slivers evenly in the leg of lamb, and insert the garlic slivers.
- Rub all over with lemon juice, then pat the rosemary and black pepper evenly over the surface. Sprinkle with salt to taste. If you're using fresh rosemary, just insert the sprigs with the garlic slivers into the cuts you made.
- Place lamb, fat side up on a rack in an uncovered pan.
- Roast 30 minutes to a pound or until the internal temperature reaches 175-180°F, for meat well done. If you prefer slightly rare lamb, roast until 160-165°F.
- When done, remove from oven, cover the roast in foil and allow it to rest for 20 minutes before carving.
- 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.
ROAST LEG OF LAMB
Cooking peeled potatoes in the pan around the roast is yummy. The only other things you need are gravy made from the pan drippings and a fresh vegetable.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cut slits in the top of the leg of lamb every 3 to 4 inches, deep enough to push slices of garlic down into the meat. Salt and pepper generously all over the top of lamb, place several sprigs of fresh rosemary under and on top of the lamb. Place lamb on roasting pan.
- Roast in preheated oven until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness, about 1 3/4 to 2 hours. Do not overcook the lamb, the flavor is best if meat is still slightly pink. Let rest at least 10 minutes before carving.

ROAST LEG OF LAMB WITH FORK-MASHED MINT PEAS
Brian Bistrong, the chef of the clubby TriBeCa restaurant the Harrison, ushers in spring with lamb cooked to a perfect pink and fork-mashed peas that have been simmered in pan drippings and tossed with torn mint leaves. Add a pile of potatoes roasted with rosemary and garlic for a meal that couldn't be more simple, or sublime. And if your carving skills are shaky, practice on a cantaloupe.

Steps:
- To make the lamb: the night before, tie off lamb with kitchen twine, drawing it around every 2 inches. Season with pepper, garlic, rosemary and lemon; coat with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
- Two hours before cooking, take the leg out of the refrigerator so that the meat comes to room temperature. Season lamb with half a teaspoon of salt per pound.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the roasting pan on the stovetop and turn the flame to medium-high; add remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Place leg of lamb in pan and sear to golden brown on all sides. Turn off flame and remove lamb; place roasting rack in pan and put leg of lamb on rack. (If you don't have a roasting rack, use a professional shortcut and take 2 feet of aluminum foil, crush it into a bagel-size circle and put it under the leg.)
- After 1 hour, check temperature in the deepest part of the leg with an instant-read thermometer (for medium-rare lamb, the rule of thumb is 15 minutes a pound). The thermometer should read 118 degrees for a bloody medium-rare, 120 degrees for rosy pink. Remember that the ends will be hotter and more cooked.
- Place lamb on platter and let rest at least 20 minutes before carving. Deglaze pan with 1 cup chicken stock. Strain, and pour half the liquid onto the platter with the lamb, saving the rest for the peas.
- To make the peas: heat a heavy 5-quart saucepan over a medium flame. Add deglazing liquid from roasting pan and then the peas. As they soften, mash the peas against side of saucepan with the tines of a fork, pressing in the meaty deglazing liquid. When mashed to desired level, season with salt and pepper; add torn mint leaves and stir. Serve immediately.

ROAST LEG OF LAMB
This recipe gives the traditional lamb a bit of a lift. The anchovies might seem strange in a meat dish, but they do enhance the flavour and are not at all fishy. The use of red currant jelly both sweetens and enriches the gravy - no gravy browning or stock cubes are necessary.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the lamb joint with malt vinegar and thoroughly dry it.
- Using a sharp knife, make a series of deep cuts all over the meat.
- Stuff a slice of garlic, a couple of rosemary leaves and a sliver of anchovy into each cut, pushing them deep into the meat.
- Rub the olive oil all over the lamb joint.
- Place a roasting tin into the oven and preheat to very hot (220°C).
- Place the lamb joint in the roasting tin and cook for 15 minutes per pound with 15 minutes over (reduce the cooking time by 10-15 minutes if you prefer a pinker joint).
- About half an hour before the end of cooking, pour half the wine over the joint.
- Remove the lamb from the oven and put it in a warm place to set.
- Meanwhile, deglaze the roasting tin with the remaining wine scraping with a metal spoon to incorporate all the meat juices.
- Add the red currant jelly and stir to dissolve.
- Strain the juices into a pan and add some of the water you have cooked the vegetables in (thickening with cornflour- if liked) and bring to the boil.
- Carve the lamb into thick slices and serve with new potatoes, vichy carrots and peas accompanied with mint sauce and the gravy.
