Cook: 2 hr
Yield: 10 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 to 3 onions, chopped
  2. 5 to 6 stalks celery, chopped
  3. 2 to 3 carrots, chopped
  4. Salt
  5. Pepper
  6. Oregano
  7. Several cloves garlic
  8. 1 (7 pound) bone-in leg of lamb, boned, rolled, and tiedCornstarch, to thicken

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  2. Put the chopped onions, celery, and carrots in a roasting pan. Sprinkle with a little salt, pepper, and oregano. Add the garlic cloves. Place the lamb in the roasting pan on top of the vegetables. Season the lamb with a little more salt, pepper, and oregano.
  3. Place in the oven for 15 minutes. Add a couple of cups of water to the pan, enough so it doesn’t stick.
  4. Lower the temperature to 350 degrees and cook for 90 minutes. Remove the lamb, strain the juice from the roasted vegetables left in the pan, and put into another pan. Take strained vegetable juice, and add just enough cornstarch to thicken. This is the lamb gravy.
  5. Slice the lamb and serve with gravy, roasted potatoes, and choice of vegetable.

Great recipe. Used it for Seder meal for grade school students, and even though the adults doubted the students would like the lamb, they inhaled it and wanted more. Easy to use and tastes fantastic, the kids want this recipe to take home!

I made this tonight for dinner it was a huge success! came out perfectly cooked at med rare, the gravy was awesome, what helped me the most was the video attatched to this recipe to help me get an idea of what was needed for this recipe

This was a huge disappointment. There was hardly a teaspoon of liquid for the gravy, it was overdone, not medium rare and it was tasteless. I realize that this recipe was down-sized for the home cook, but the “down-sizer” really goofed on this one. What a waste!!
