Amazingly Tender Slow Roasted Whole Leg Of Lamb

[@radioactivepotato2068]

Strain then add red wine to your juices, reduce by a third to a half. Add a teaspoon of blackcurrant jam and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for ten minutes, removing any scum from the surface, thicken with flour or a cornflour slurry. Serve with roast or mashed potatoes and veg. Just throwing that out there.. 😊

[@Zebra66]

Or... try using red wine instead of water in the bottom of your roasting pan. It makes way more difference than one might think.

[@loungelizard3922]

Bone in lamb legs are the most common way to buy lamb in NZ, so thank you very much for this straight forward and simple recipe. 250 F = 121 C for metric folk like me, and if you don't have a roasting pan that can keep the lamb above the water/stock/wine, you can use onion under the lamb to elevate it. Thanks for the video, best on youtube.

[@bondniko]

Cool. I will put some onions underneath

[@rjfisher7926]

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a leg of lamb quite that perfectly cooked. That’s absolutely beautiful!

[@johndavis7944]

Mary had a little lamb... The farmer shot it dead. So Graham cooked it nice and slow to have with 2 slices of bread.

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

Fact check: ... True!

[@999ThingsToCook]

This really IS the way to do it! Fantastic Job Man!!! I'm feasting on a leg of lamb me self right now..., a smaller one though. And This is the way it's done. Enough said. Nice Job brother!!!

Oh wow, I love this Graham!! My mom does lamb all holidays and it’s always a little tough. This amazed me how tender and I’ll only do it this way in the future! Sharing with family now!!

Sheepish, heh heh. Gorgeous final result! I was waiting for a "ya gotta be pullin' my leg" joke of some kind, that would have worked great at the beginning when you talked about how little prep time it took. Ah well, hindsight's 20/20. I have the same exact pan - just used it for the Easter ham!

Pink lamb is very, very nice. So is slow roasted lamb, like in the present video. In my kitchen, we use a lot of garlic. Not to everyone’s taste, but we prefer it.

[@RecipeswithResa]

I was literally about to ask you about that leftover juice! I was thinking, no way is Graham going to forget that. 🤤The gravy you could make with that! The lamb looks very tender, and I like this cooking method, perfect for anyone who is intimidated (like me)😎

[@khaledakm]

That looked really yummy. MashaAllah

[@SpAsthmaticShef]

Amazingly easy. Looks fabulous

[@Zebra66]

I agree. Long and slow is the way to go. Medium rare meat looks pretty on TV shows but, in reality, it's often tougher and less flavorful. Especially after it has cooled down. If you have kids you will definitely find it easier to get them to eat the fork tender slow roast.

[@mstory307]

I was looking for slow roast instructions; thank you! I'm going to marinate mine in a rub today and cook it tomorrow 🥲

[@ReyOfrenVlogs]

wow.....love it

[@cspace1234nz]

Yeah that's ok. I'm a Kiwi so lamb has always been a regular meal here. The only thing I would do differently with this one is for the last 10-15 minutes turn the heat up considerably to slightly crisp up that outside bit. The inside stays nice and tender but it adds so much extra texture and flavour. But that's just me.

[@markm5868]

So easy to get it right with a slow roast.

Lamb is my favourite Meat but only served with mint sauce. The way you have cooked it, very nice and it’s falling apart Tfs

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

yeah my mom loves the mint sauce too! I don't know I just always associate mint flavors with toothpaste and I can't get out of my head 😆

Super yummy

[@vahas5128]

Do you have a size guide vs cooking time? Just struggling to know how long to cook at different sizes. Thanks for the video

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

40 minutes a pound @250f I think is the estimate I used for the video

[@matthill3293]

Where did you get the cooking vessel/pan from? I'd love that!

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

I had to think about it! I think it was actually ebay like 15 years ago. The fact that it's thick stainless steel looks cool but it actually slows down cooking somewhat. It wont let me post links here in the comments but id look on amazon for "19 roasting pan" and grab one of those classic black speckled ones!

I've been watching a lot of Gordon Ramsay shows lately... And I think he'd approve 👀😍

Does anyone recommend an internal temperature to look for when cooking this way? I seem to be a poor judge of the tenderness of meat when using a fork as he does, haha.

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

I know for a pork shoulder cooked in a similar way you're looking for an internal temperature of around 205 degrees fahrenheit, not sure if that completely translates to here though! Fork test is best test 😁

Yup

The kitchen equivalent of test taking anxiety, the struggle is real! pork shoulder is a good cut to practice this type of super low and slow method on, I'm not sure about there but here it's a lot cheaper than lamb. I splurged on this for sure 🤫

[@ianlvt3780]

In the oven now, thanks!

[@londongirl6711]

Help please! I made lamb, 1kg, 200°C 2.5 hours and it was chewy on outside pink inside?! Why?? It was covered in foil, marinade overnight. Help please why?!

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

Did you forget to turn the oven on?! 😅 Only joking. But I would expect it to be at least cooked through after that long at 200C! 2.5 hours is a long time for 1kg of lamb

[@PratimSC]

Try cooking at 160C with fan on, for around the same time i.e 2.5 to 3hrs . Lamb should be at Room temperature before you star baking. Wrap it with aluminum foil to hold moisture. Towards the end, remove foil or tear it on top, and roast for 10 minutes at 220 for that crisp top.

[@davidhoydic7068]

What is the final temp you pull out the lamb?

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

Well I don't really go based on temperature so much as fork tenderness, but going on the same thermodynamic principles as something like pulled pork I would guess around a 200 Fahrenheit

[@Shaf1ur]

When you broil it. What temperature have you done it on?

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

My broiler doesn't have a temperature setting I just broil it on high until it starts to get golden brown!

[@bonniemaze3163]

What if the leg of lamb is boneless and already seasoned with rosemary and garlic? 🤔

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

You can still use the low and slow method with the time per pound of guidelines here, should work. But a pre trimmed&tied leg of lamb like that should be tender enough to just cook to an internal temp of 150 Fahrenheit or so for medium well if you want to go that route!

[@nickking2491]
