Posted by: admin / Category: Entertain guests, Main meals, Roast Meats, Tips
This is a Traditional Roasted Lamb Mediterranean style with the aroma of rosemary & garlic smells divine . The taste is absolutely delicious with the tomato pesto massaged into the skin of the lamb. With all these beautiful flavours & the lamb juices make a flavoursome gravy. Watch out for the tips what I make with the lamb for the next night dinner.
1.5 kg / 3lb leg lamb
2 sprigs fresh Rosemary
4 cloves garlic, peeled & cut in half
3 to 4tblsp tomato pesto
2 bay leaves
fresh ground pepper & salt
1 cup white wine or chicken stock
3 to 4tbsp olive oil
METHOD :
- Cut any excess fat from the lamb.Using a sharp knife Ginsu 4827 14 Piece Stainless Block Set – Black, make a cuts just under the skin all around the meat.Insert the garlic & rosemary( if using dried herbs,sprinkle them over the surface of the meat.) Rub the tomato pesto over the lamb skin.

on a baking tray .Pour on olive oil over the lamb.Season.Pour the wine on bottom of the rack add bay leaves - Place in the oven on 180*C ( 350*F ) & roast for 35 minutes,basting occasionally. The roasted for 45 minutes more, or until the meat is cooked. Remove the lamb to a heated serving dish.Tilt the pan,spooning off any fat on the surface. strain the pan juices into the gravy.
