Usually I am not a fan of Hueys recipes, but this recipe is wonderful. I found this recipe whilst watching Hueys Cooking adventures and copied it! Great outcome. Ingredients:
2 1/4 kg leg of lamb |
1 lemon, cut into small triangles (12-18 triangles needed) |
1 fresh garlic, cut into slivers (12-18 slivers needed) |
sea salt |
fresh ground pepper |
plain flour |
3 cups chicken stock |
200 g diced tomatoes, canned |
1/2 tablespoon mint jelly |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 220°C fan forced or 240°C normal.
2. Place the lamb in a large oven tray and cut small, deep slits all over the lamb. Then stud with the lemon pieces and garlic slivers then lightly dust lamb with flour and Season well, sprinkle with oil. Pour about 1/2 cup stock into the tray and cook in the oven for 20 minutes.
3. Turn the oven temperature down to 180°C fan forced oven or 200°c normal oven and cook lamb for about another 50-60 mins for a pink rare meat & longer for medium and longer again for well done, basting and adding some more stock to the tray as you do so.
4. Remove lamb and rest for 10 mins, before carving.
5. While the lamb is resting, degrease the tray and add 1 heaped tbsp flour. Cook over a medium heat, continually stirring, and add the tomatoes, about 1 cup stock and add mint jelly. Stir well and reduce to a gravy consistency, when ready strain the sauce.
6. Slice the lamb and arrange on plates, spoon gravy over and serve.
