Ingredients

Leg of Lamb

four large cloves of garlic

2 Tablespoons of Herbs de Provence

Rock Salt & Fresh Ground Pepper

2 Tablespoons Rosemary - preferably fresh

Directions

Let leg of lamb sit on counter for half an hour to warm up from refrigerator. Remove any "fell" off of lamb but do not remove all of the fat.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees

Place Lamb on rack in roasting pan.

Cut up garlic into large slivers.

With knife, make slits into lamb and place garlic into slits.

Generously salt and pepper lamb

Sprinkle Herbs de Provence all over lamb.

Throw the pan into the oven.

Once an hour, baste with any pan drippings.

Roast 25-30 minutes per pound - a six pound leg of lamb will take 3 hours. A slow oven (325 degrees) will ensure the fat melts which will continuously baste the leg of lamb.

Lamb will continue to cook once out of the stove.

Do let the lamb "rest" as with all meat at least 20 minutes.

Best served medium rare -

You may add cut up potatoes that have been drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with rosemary, salt and pepper into the rack one hour before lamb is done.

Been doing mine this way for years. A bit of prep but worth every moment.
Simply put: You. Will. Love. It. (Make extra, it's great cold, too. LEFT OVERS! YeeHaw!)

Try it on the grill too: Outstanding!

Flavors sound just right. Are you sure about that 325? I've roasted them even slower for even more juiciness.

I made this last week. Excellent--tender and pink. I did increase the temperature to 400, convection bake, for the last 15 minutes, to get a little more browning.

Thanks Diva! I will grab a leg next time I see it in the mark-down bin, bring it home and cook it up! Hey, straight to the saves....--Kn0x--

Oven on 325 is just fine if your Lamb is on the rack but it all depends on the oven as well, I do agree with "pieplate" to increase temperature near the end for the bit of extra browning...great recipe...
