4 cloves garlic, sliced
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
5 pounds leg of lamb
Cut slits in the top of the leg of lamb every 3-4 inches, deep enough to
push slices of garlic down into the meat. Salt and pepper generously all
over the top of lamb, place several sprigs of fresh rosemary under and
on top of the lamb.
Roast at 325-350 degrees F (165-175 degrees C) until the lamb is cooked
to medium well. Do not overcook the lamb, the flavor is best if meat is
still slightly pink.
