This will fall off the bone and makes a lovely rich and intense gravy. You can use oregano instead of the rosemary.

Time 4h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 lbs leg of lamb
2 tablespoons plain flour
salt and pepper
1 lb peeled small onion or 2 large sliced onions
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken stock
1 teaspoon dried rosemary or 3 -5 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons red currant jelly

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • Pour the oil into a large, sturdy roasting tin and set it over the stove top.
  • Slash the lamb with a sharp knife, use one of the sliced garlic cloves, and stick slivers into the meat.
  • Season the lamb with salt and pepper then roll it in the flour.
  • Brown the lamb all over in the hot oil for 5-10 minutes.
  • Add the onions and cook for a further 5-10 minutes, turning the lamb and stirring the onions until both are nicely browned.
  • Add the garlic, white wine, stock, rosemary and redcurrant jelly, bring to a simmer, transfer to the the oven and cook for 2 hours covered, basting now and again with the juices.
  • Uncover and cook for another 1 1/2-2 hours, basting again at intervals.
  • Take the lamb out of the tin and place on a large board to rest in a warm place.
  • If needed skim off and reduce the pan juices, mash up the onions a bit.
  • Cut the lamb into thick slices - you'll find the meat falls away from the bone so you may end up with more chunks than slices.
