Serve up an Easy Carve Lamb Leg.

An easy & delicious roast to celebrate Lamb Day.

If you haven’t heard of an easy-carve lamb leg before, it’s a semi-boned lamb leg with the shank still on but the larger bone in the middle removed, which makes the lamb, you guessed it, nice and easy to carve. Our succulent Patangata Station Lamb doesn’t need much more than salt and pepper to enjoy, but if you want to spruce things up and make a meal of it, why not try this recipe (serves 6-8) on for size:

Ingredients:

2.2kg easy carve lamb leg

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves

1 tablespoon of olive oil

Vegetables for Roasting (potatoes, parsnips, carrots): 1.5kg potatoes, 6 parsnips, 6 carrots. Cut them all to relatively the same size to cook equally, halving your larger ones lengthways.

4 x Lemons cut into wedges

Cooking Instructions:

Remove your lamb from the fridge and let it come to room temperature.

Preheat your oven to 180C

Scatter half the rosemary over the lamb and season the meat with salt and pepper.

Par boil your roasted vegetables, add your potatoes and carrots to boiling salted water for five minutes, then add your parsnips and keep boiling everything for another four minutes.

Drain your vegetables, remove the parsnips and carrots, and fluff up your potatoes to make them extra crunchy.

Once cooled, toss your lemons and vegetables with the olive oil and remaining rosemary, season and put aside.

Roast your lamb for 1 hour 15 for rare, 1 hour 30 minutes for medium or 1 hour 45 minutes for well done.

Add your vegetables with the lamb after 30 minutes of cooking time.

Remove the lamb once cooked to your level of perfection, cover it loosely and rest for 15 minutes.

Carve and serve with your roasted vegetables, eat and celebrate Lamb Day!
