Number Of Ingredients 11

4 lbs leg of lamb (boned weight)
salt and pepper
string
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 large onion, finely chopped
2 3/4 ounces walnut pieces
2 1/4 ounces breadcrumbs

  • Season the outside of the lamb with salt and pepper and roast in the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Turn the heat down to 375 degrees F, and cook for another hour, then serve- the lamb will be pink.
