I love leg of lamb. I recommend buying it boneless or removing the bone before cooking it. It will be easier to cut after it’s cooked.
The leg of lamb is delicious when served with a hunter sauce. For vegetables, I like to serve it with the hunter style carrots.
Ingredients:
- 1 leg of lamb, around 2 kg
- 4 or 5 garlic cloves
- 30 ml butter
- 30 ml melted butter
- 2 ml rosemary
- 5 ml old fashion mustard (the one with the seeds)
- 1 onion finely chopped
Method:
- Remove as much fat as possible from the leg of lamb
- Finely slice 2 garlic cloves, taking care to remove the germ first (it help to digest garlic!)
- Make small cuts on the leg of lamb and insert a garlic slice in each
- Chop the remaining garlic and mix with the other ingredients
- Spread the mixture on the lamb and let marinade for about 2 hours before cooking the lamb in the oven or on the BBQ
