Stuffed Leg of Lamb image

A very tasty variation on roast lamb with flavour of the Mediterranean. No need to use a boned leg ! The stuffing on the surface becomes crisp while the meat stays juicy inside. So tasty you won't need gravy !

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 kg leg of lamb (bone left in)
4 slices white bread, process into crumbs
fresh parsley, roughly chopped
4 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons capers packed in salt, rinsed and chopped
2 anchovies, chopped
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
3 tablespoons olive oil
rosemary

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200°C.
  • Hold the lamb with the flesh side towards you and cut slices about 2cm apart through to the bone-a bit like cutting chops but not through the bone.
  • Mix the fresh bread crumbs parsley, garlic, capers, anchovies, lemon rind and oil.
  • Using your hands, place stuffing between the slices.
  • Tie the leg with string to hold the slices together-this can be a bit tricky, a spare pair of hands makes it easier.
  • Scatter rosemary over the leg.
  • Place in a baking dish and cook at 180 C for about 2 hours.
  • When you carve, instead of slices you end up with tasty, chunky fingers of lamb.
  • Enjoy !
