Leg of Lamb Roasted Over Potato-Onion Gratin Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by ltrodrigu

Number Of Ingredients 24

For Lamb:
6 1/2 pound leg of lamb, patted dry
4 cloves garlic, 3 smashed into a paste, 1 halved
olive oil
salt
freshly ground black pepper
For Gratin:
2 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme, divided
2 teaspoons sea salt, divided
2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
6 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 yellow onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
For Salsa Verde:
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons Champagne vinegar, plus more as needed
1 teaspoon honey
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more as needed
a pinch of salt, plus more as needed
a pinch of freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare Lamb: Rub garlic paste all over lamb. Rub olive oil all over the leg, then generously season with salt and pepper. Set lamb aside at room temperature for 2 hours. Prepare Gratin: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Choose a baking dish large enough to hold lamb comfortably. Rub interior of dish with the cut side of a halved garlic clove. In the dish, place potatoes, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, garlic, and 2 teaspoons olive oil. Toss everything together and spread potatoes out in an even layer across dish. In a medium bowl, toss 2 yellow onions together with 1 teaspoon thyme , 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper and 2 teaspoons olive oil. Evenly scatter onions over top of potatoes. Pour wine over vegetables. Place baking dish with gratin on lowest oven rack. If dish is not large enough to hold lamb and catch all drippings, place a baking sheet or piece of aluminum foil under dish. Place leg of lamb directly on rack above gratin and make sure baking dish is positioned so it catches all drippings. Roast 15 minutes, then lower oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue roasting lamb until meat thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 125 degrees for medium-rare, about 1¼ hours. (For medium doneness, cook until temperature reads 135 degrees; for medium-well, 145 degrees.) Check gratin after 1 hour of cooking. If potatoes are fork-tender, remove gratin from oven. If the roast needs more cooking time, place (or leave) a baking sheet or aluminum foil on rack beneath lamb to catch drippings. Once lamb reaches desired doneness, transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 10 minutes. While lamb and potatoes roast, make Salsa Verde: In a small bowl, mix parsley, mint, thyme, vinegar, honey, olive oil, salt and pepper. Add more olive oil, vinegar and salt as needed. Serve lamb with gratin and salsa verde alongside.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 (5 to 6 pound) boneless leg of lamb
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/4 cup chopped scallions
1 tablespoon minced thyme leaves
1 tablespoon herbs de Provence
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Kosher Salt
Fire Roasted Eggplant and Grilled Tomatoes, recipe follows
8 to 10 Asian eggplants, pierced with a fork
6 vine ripe tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon toasted ground cumin
1/2 cup tomato concasse
1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon picked fresh oregano leaves
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup chopped parsley
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Wash the leg of lamb and pat dry. Place in a hotel or lasagna pan.
  • In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients except the salt. Stir until well blended. Pour over the lamb and turn a few times to make sure that the meat is well coated by the marinade. Refrigerate the marinated leg of lamb at least 2 hours, making sure you turn the meat at least once.
  • Preheat the grill to medium.
  • Season the meat with salt. Transfer to the hot grill and cook for 15 minutes on one side. Turn and continue to cook for another 15 minutes. Move the meat to a colder spot on the grill and cover. Continue to cook to desired doneness; check after meat has cooked for a total of 45 minutes and then again after 1 hour. Time will depend on the thickness of the meat.
  • Allow meat to cool for 15 minutes before carving to keep as much of the meat juice. Slice on a bias and serve with fire roasted eggplant and grilled tomatoes.
  • Preheat the grill to medium.
  • Place the eggplant on the grill for about 30 minutes, turning often. Remove and cool completely.
  • Once cool, scrape out the pulp and discard the skins. Reserve.
  • Rub the halved tomatoes with olive oil and salt and pepper. Place onto the side of the grill and roast until soft.
  • In a large saute pan, over the hot part of the grill, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic, onion, cumin, tomato concasse, sesame seeds, and oregano. Cook until onion is soft. Remove from heat and adjust consistency with water. Add the parsley and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.

GREEK ROAST LAMB AND POTATOES



Greek Roast Lamb and Potatoes image

There's nothing like Greek roast lamb and potatoes. In Greece, meat (lamb, beef, chicken) and potatoes in the oven is an ubiquitous dish throughout the winter. Upon my most recent visit to Athens, my aunt let me in on a secret that takes this traditional roast lamb to another level. Instead of the usual lemon juice, she said, add the juice of one orange. I tried this upon my return home and it is absolutely delicious! It may be awhile before I go back to lemons -- and this dish is as delicious as it is simple.

Provided by Diana Moutsopoulos

Categories     Leg of Lamb

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large orange, juiced
3 tablespoons brown mustard, or more to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 teaspoons dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste
10 Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
1 (3 pound) half leg of lamb, bone-in
5 cloves garlic

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • In large bowl, whisk together the orange juice, mustard, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir the potatoes into the bowl to coat with orange juice mixture. Remove potatoes with a slotted spoon, and place them into a large roasting pan.
  • Cut slits into the lamb meat, and stuff the garlic cloves into the slits. Rub remaining orange juice mixture from bowl all over the lamb, and place the lamb on top of the potatoes in the roasting pan. If there's any remaining orange juice mixture, pour it over the lamb.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until the potatoes are tender and the lamb is cooked to medium, about 1 hour. A meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Check every 30 minutes while roasting, and add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of hot water if you find the potatoes are drying out. If the lamb finishes cooking before the potatoes, remove the lamb to a cutting board or serving platter and cover with foil while the potatoes continue to bake in the oven.

LEG OF LAMB WITH ONIONS, POTATOES, AND TOMATOES



Leg of Lamb with Onions, Potatoes, and Tomatoes image

My aunt Latifa and uncle Mousa lived in a villa in a suburb of Cairo. It was large and housed their extended family. There was no oven. Much of the cooking was done over a mangal (portable outdoor grill) and a Primus oil heater, and trays were sent off daily to the baker to be cooked in the bread oven. This dish was sent to the baker.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 leg of lamb (about 4 pounds)
3 or 4 cloves garlic, slivered
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 pounds potatoes, thickly sliced
2 large onions, sliced
1 pound tomatoes, sliced
2 teaspoons dried rigani (wild marjoram) or oregano (optional)

Steps:

  • Pierce the leg of lamb all over with the point of a sharp knife and insert the slivers of garlic at different depths. Rub generously with salt and pepper.
  • Put the prepared lamb, fat side up, in a large baking dish or roasting pan, and surround it with the sliced potatoes, onions, and tomatoes. Pour in 1/2 cup water, and sprinkle if you like with a little rigani or oregano.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Put in the leg of lamb and reduce the heat immediately to 325°F. Roast for about 2 1/2 hours, or until done to your liking, basting occasionally with the pan juices.
  • Turn the vegetables over once during the cooking so that they cook evenly in the juices from the joint, and pour off excess fat. The joint should be very tender and juicy, and the vegetables quite soft. I like them practically disintegrating, but if you prefer them to be rather more firm, add them to the roast after about half an hour's cooking, when the meat has already released some fat. Baste the vegetables when you baste the meat, and moisten occasionally with a little water if necessary.
  • Let the meat rest in the turned-off oven with the door open for 15 minutes before serving. Remove the lamb to a board-it makes carving easier.
  • You can of course cook the leg of lamb without the vegetables. Here is a sauce which you can pour on each serving as you hand it out: fry a handful of blanched, slivered almonds in a drop of oil till golden, add the defatted juices from the pan and a little water, and stir in 2 tablespoons black or golden raisins.

GARLIC AND HERB LEG OF LAMB WITH POTATOES RECIPE BY TASTY



Garlic And Herb Leg Of Lamb With Potatoes Recipe by Tasty image

Cooking a melts-in-your-mouth lamb recipe doesn't need to be complicated. This leg of lamb is rubbed with a lemony, garlic-herb-mustard paste before being roasted over a pan of white wine and potatoes. The potatoes soak up all the juices while the lamb gets charred on the outside and perfectly tender on the inside. Garnish with fresh rosemary and thyme before serving it as the centerpiece of a dinner you'll get endless compliments on.

Provided by Chris Salicrup

Categories     Dinner

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 lb bone-in lamb roast with fat cap
12 cloves garlic, divided
½ cup olive oil
⅓ cup whole grain mustard, plus more for serving
1 lemon, juiced
10 sprigs fresh rosemary, stemmed and leaves finely chopped, plus whole sprigs for serving
10 sprigs fresh thyme, stemmed and leaves finely chopped, plus whole sprigs for serving
1 ½ tablespoons sea salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
¾ cup dry white wine
2 ½ lb yukon gold potato, halved
flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • 2-3 hours before roasting, prepare the lamb. Use a small, sharp knife to make 15 to 20 incisions, each about 2 inches (5 cm) deep, through the fat cap on top of the meat. Thinly slice 3 cloves of garlic and use your fingers to press the slices into the incisions.
  • In a blender, combine the remaining 9 garlic cloves, the olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, rosemary leaves, thyme leaves, salt, and pepper. Blend until a paste forms.
  • Spread the paste evenly all over the lamb. Let marinate at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Place the lamb on a roasting rack in a roasting pan and pour the wine into the bottom of the pan. Roast for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and reduce the heat to 325°F (160°C).
  • Arrange the potatoes, cut side down, in the roasting pan and place the lamb on the rack on top. Roast for 2 hours, tossing the potatoes and basting the lamb with the roasting liquid halfway through.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a platter, baste the lamb again with the remaining pan juices, and return the lamb to the oven. Continue to roast, basting often, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the leg reaches 130°F (for medium-rare), 45 minutes to 2 hours more, depending on thickness. (As a general rule, the lamb should roast 20 minutes per pound for medium-rare).
  • Transfer the lamb to a platter and set aside to rest for 20 minutes. While the lamb rests, return the potatoes to the roasting pan, season with flaky salt, and warm in the oven until just heated through, about 20 minutes. Return the potatoes to the serving platter.
  • Carve the lamb into ½-inch (1 cm) thick slices and arrange on the platter with the potatoes, garnished with rosemary and thyme sprigs. Serve with whole grain mustard alongside.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Marinate the lamb leg overnight: This allows the flavors to penetrate deeply into the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and tender roast.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness: The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 160°F (71°C) for medium, and 170°F (77°C) for well-done.
  • Let the lamb rest before carving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
  • Roast the vegetables separately from the lamb: This prevents the vegetables from overcooking and becoming mushy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in the tian: This will add flavor and color to the dish.
  • Serve the lamb and vegetables together: This creates a beautiful and delicious dish that is sure to impress your guests.

Conclusion:
