Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, olive oil, juice and zest of the lemon, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Lamb

    Place the leg of lamb in a large dish and pour the marinade over it. Make sure to rub the marinade into the meat thoroughly. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

  4. 4

    Roast the Lamb

    Place the marinated lamb in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for about 1.5 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 60°C (140°F) for medium-rare.

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the lamb from the oven, cover it with foil, and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with your choice of sides.
