Roasted Leg of Lamb


 I got this leg of lamb roast on sale.  I set about roasting it as follows:

3 1/2 -4 lb leg of lamb

5 cloves of garlic

2 tbs lemon juice

1-2 tsp dried rosemary

1 tbs Dijon Mustard

2 tbs olive oil

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper


Preheat oven 375F

I opened up my roast and cut it into a slab a couple of inches thick.  Lay it flat on a baking dish lined with foil and then parchment paper.

Marinate roast with all the ingredients  Bake until the internal temperature is 135-140F.  It took me 55 minutes.  Rest and slice into 1/4" thick slices.

As a guide, I used this link.

I was happy with the results.

  5. Such an interesting way to cook it, to cut it up first.
    Makes the cooking so much shorter. Sounds like you liked the marinade.
