Roast Herbed Lamb

INGREDIENTS

5lb leg of lamb on the bone

5 cloves of garlic + 3 cloves of garlic

handful of fresh rosemary

juice of 2 lemons

freshly ground salt and pepper

METHOD

1. Peel the garlic and cut into about 10 slivers.

2. Using a very sharp knife, make about 10 incisions in the lamb.

3. Push a piece of garlic and a twig of rosemary in each incision.

4. Squeeze the remaining three cloves of garlic over the lamb – spreading as evenly as possible.

5. Pour the lemon juice over the lamb and rub in roughly.

6. Season the joint all over with salt and pepper.

7. Place on a roasting tray and place in oven 400ºC/190ºC allowing 12 minutes/lb for rare lamb and 15 – 16 minutes/lb for lamb that is well done.

8. Allow it to stand for a few minutes before carving and serving.

9. Serve the pan juices separately.
