5 to 6 lamb or veal bones
3 carrots cut in chunks
3 stalks celery, sliced
1 head garlic, split
1 onion, sliced
1 bottle dry white wine
2 quarts water
2 tomatoes
4 sprigs parsley
2 sprigs rosemary

Steps:

Remove bones and vegetables and strain stock into a smaller pot. Continue reducing until you have a cup of liquid, which may take about 45 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. The sauce can be prepared ahead of time up to this point and refrigerated until needed.
  • Prepare marinade for the lamb. Mash garlic into a paste with mustard, soy sauce, rosemary leaves and olive oil. Spread mixture over lamb, wrap in foil and refrigerate overnight.

1 leg of lamb, bone in (about 6 to 7 1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
8 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon salt
