Steps:
- Allow the leg of lamb to rest at room temperature for 1 hour before cooking.
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
- Whisk the garlic, pepper, red pepper flakes, bay leaf, rosemary, 1/2 cup olive oil, vinegar, and honey together in a small bowl. Rub the mixture over the lamb, then season with 2 tablespoons coarse salt. Set aside. Place carrots, potatoes, beet, yam, and turnips in a large roasting pan. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a pinch of salt. Arrange the seasoned leg of lamb on top of the vegetables.
- Roast the lamb in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Continue roasting to your desired degree of doneness, about 90 minutes more for medium-rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
- Allow the leg of lamb on a cutting board, tented with aluminum foil, for 30 minutes before carving. Place the vegetables on a serving platter and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm until ready to serve.

PEPPER-CRUSTED LAMB WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES
Here's a bistro-style entrée that's easy to make using supermarket ingredients and the oven does most of the heavy lifting. While the broccolini and potatoes roast up to crispy perfection virtually unsupervised, you'll get to work coating lamb loin chops in crushed black peppercorns and giving them a good sear in a skillet. A quick pan sauce made with shallots and red wine ties everything together for a delicious and surprisingly simple meal.
