[loulou111]

We are having a leg of lamb for christmas.
Looking for an unusual but tasty way to cook it any suggestions welcome.

I liked the lady who killed her horrid husband with a frozen leg of lamb, cooked it and fed it to the investigating police officers......☺

And yes.....rosemary and garlic.....x

Garlic with lamb is a sin

[sunny-dave]

Make a thick marinade (OK a thick gunk) of balsamic vinegar, olive oil and Dijon mustard.

Plaster it all over the lamb and leave to soak in for a few hours.

Then roast hot for 20 mins and medium for another hour or so (depending on the weight).

The marinade will crozzle up nicely and the juices in the pan will make wonderful jus (or gravy, if you're a pleb like me).

[tonyav]

Thank gawd for that, Dave has gone back on track.

[gness]

Well just don't tell my Mum, Tambo.......she thinks I'm enough of a sinner without finding that out.......Mortal or Venial... ;-)

[tamborine]

Why add all that gunk when all you need is salted skin on lamb

[sunny-dave]

It amplifies the essential lambiness and makes great gravy, tambo

[gness]

Blimey!...Hark at Heston!.....☺
