Thanks, man. Simple and easy.

Made it for Palm Sunday, 2023. EXCELLENT MEAL. While he did not show how to make the Gravy, I made it the way you always make it. No one can cook a small boneless leg of lamb at 300 degrees for only 60 minutes. I did my 1.5 lb piece at 350 for 1 1/2 hrs. Came out perfect.

A good recipe, enjoyed watching. I never peel the garlic if I want to crush in a crusher. Makes life much easier.

I was looking for a lamb recepie. Finally I decided, I follow this good old English recepie. But I will marinate the lamb leg with the same spices was used.

Succulently roasted leg of lamb, which was sent to other members of family that are self isolating . All agree that it had beautiful flavours coming through and the gravey truly excellent in capturing the lamb and vegetables. So glad I came across your recipe. Knew it was good as no one said much about my pineapple upside down cake with ice cream /custard. Many thanks once again. Happy Easter Sunday.😋

Nice simple straight forward 'how to' guide to follow.....just a point though I always tend to cook joints on a lower heat but for a longer period of time and it's always bang on.....wouldn't this method work for a leg of lamb? E.g. If I cook a shoulder of sparerib of Pork I'll cook it at 140 for around 5/6 hours depending the size of the joint and it just melts in your mouth 🤤😋

@BestofBritishBlackwell

4 жыл бұрын

Thank for commenting. I have marinated a leg of lamb before. However, I found that the marinade really overtook the sweet flavour of the lamb, so it was not my preferred method. Different cuts of lamb can take stronger flavours. However, the sweet meat on the leg needs to be treated more subtly and marinading can over power that. What do you think?

@littlemac9451

@@BestofBritishBlackwell Lambs my all time favorite meat, but i've never made a whole leg roast before. I was thinking about getting one soon and trying it out. My marinade was gonna consist of olive oil, lemon juice, the lemons peals, garlic, some thyme, and salt and pepper, was gonna let it go overnight. Nothing to crazy with the marinate just pretty simple stuff, do you think that type of marinate would be overpowering?

@BestofBritishBlackwell

4 жыл бұрын

@@littlemac9451 It really is down to your taste. It sounds fine to me. However, be careful with the lemon juice. The acidity of the lemon juice will start to 'cook' the meat during the marinading process and you might end up with pulled lamb (lamb that falls apart) rather than a roasted joint. I would put the lemon juice on just before cooking. Let me know how it goes.
