I made this dish exactly as you said and it was by far the most authentic, delicious leg of lamb that I’ve ever made! I love love love all of your recipes! Thank you!

[@gogurtz1738]

As someone who been to a Crete island in Greece, I have to say. This has to be one of my favorite Greek dish. It is so flavorful and the meat is juicy and tender. They cook the potatoes with the goat juices 🤤

Hello. Lamb leg is currently marinating and tomorrow morning, it goes in the oven. [Edit] It was GREAT. Everybody loved the dish. [Edit 25/11/2022] Still keeping people happy with this recipe.

[@debbiedamianobillirakis4175]

Yesss all that roasted garlic! Making this for this Easter 2021 my husband has been wanting leg of lamb forever, I usually just make make a small lamb roast and slice it super thin for the best gyros. I have to say your videos have brought lots of Greek dishes into my home. The saganaki recipes I learned from you are my favorite to make. Steve's too!! I make greek potatoes exactly like you for a couple decades. ❤️🌹

[@yuliareider4342]

Made this for a family dinner last Sunday. One comment: NO LEFTOVERS!!! Perfect meat and potatoes! Thank you very much for an excellent recipe!

[@awandjaebhodaghe3151]

I've literally just finished cooking this and I've had a bite to taste and it is absolutely delicious! The only thing I changed was putting a lot less salt due to my lamb leg being smaller and I put one lamb Knorr cube in the marinate. Thank you so much for the recipe, glad I can add this to my list of meals I can cook!

[@JaniceMba]

I searched for someone to share their recipe and I have landed on pure gold, thank you so much.

[@BethyKable]

You gave me the courage to try this.....looks delicious....love the garlic in all Greek dishes too. Thanks for another delicious recipe!

[@irisheyes5169]

I’ve saved this video from last year ❤ Now that Spring has sprung 🌺🌸🌼 tonight’s the night for this - 45 mins left in oven 😋 THANK YOU from an Irish woman living in the UK 💚🇮🇪

[@ahmedparvez2016]

My mouth is already watered Can't wait anymore to have it. Awesome!! One of my favourite dissh I love

[@akbarbootha6875]

I have tried it. Came out perfect. The entire family loved it. Thank you for sharing.

[@paulotheurbanfarmer5982]

This is an amazing recipe and if done in a traditional Greek oven it is the best! Thanks Dimitra

[@bobbyboucher4101]

My girlfriend love lamb and i make all sort of lamb recipes, i found that slow cooked lamb in crock pot usually turns out to be a success. I use red wine tomato paste garlic onion thyme base and always seared the meat first in olive salt pepper.

[@aristinabarranca8144]

I made this recipe today for Easter!!🌷This was so delicious and my family enjoyed it very much! I will check out more of your awesome recipes soon!! Thank you!! 🥰😊

[@justinwong1072]

Thanks for the recipe and how-to video. I made this, and you're right that it's super easy. I love lots of garlic too, and what I did afterward with the cloves was grind them in the food processor with some salt into a paste and had garlic spread for a few days! I did the same separately with the onions.

[@nairamehio2477]

I made this like 5 times now and it's perfection everytime. I love this recipe

Your family is so fortunate to have you as their husband, and mother to feed them dishes like this. I would love to be able to cook lamb like that myself at home, and have it come out looking so delicious.

[@claudiaholmes9086]

I've never bought lamb at the grocery store because I am intimidated by it. Thank you for showing me how easy it really is!

[@dardoush]

Did it exactly as you said, it was amaaaazing!

[@activemotionpictures]

WOW! I need to try this! Incredibly simple! I´ve would've added just a tad spoon of honey in the last 30 minutes roasting and when it's cooling some rosemary to gain flavor to create that golden crusty-flavory glaze on top of the lamb.

[@aesop8694]

Great Recipe. Those that wanted to see the lamb sliced, lost the plot. The essence of this video is to show a simple Greek way of preparing and cooking a leg of lamb. Thanks Dimitra

[@DimitrasDishes]

Thank you :) I remember filming this video and finishing late in the evening. We had to wrap up due to lighting issues... Thanks for your support and understanding. All the best!

[@a320trevor]

I tried a half shoulder with all potatoes, parsnips, carrots, onions and garlic cooked you say “Well Done” and it was a very special meal.

[@paristhea]

Dear Demetra, thank you so much for τηε nice and simple instructions. I live alone in Dubai where I work, and I am unable to travel to Cyprus for Easter, so I'm here learning to cook. Thanks to you I made an excellent lamb in the oven. I deviated a little bit from your recipe, some times we don't have all the ingredients and it is difficult to get them too, however the result was excellent. I think what made a big difference was the lemon juice. Best regards and Happy Easter (Καλό Πάσχα).

[@kk-id7if]

I really love your channel. We have most of your cooking dishes here in turkey too , its very similiar. Greetings from neighbour

[@belladonna995]

Thank you for this Dimitra. I will be making this for Easter. I was thinking of making lamb fricassee, which I've never made before, but will be making your leg of lamb recipe. It looks absolutely delicious! Your lamb shanks were wonderful as well!. So I'm sure this will be too.

[@williamfotiou7577]

Love your recipe, really looks great. My mother would dip whole garlic cloves in a mix of salt, pepper, Oregano and pierce the leg, stud it with the garlic. Yiasou

[@ptop49]

Great recipe Dimitra!! I made it for Easter today. I used lamb shoulder but same results. Onions are sooo good and sweet too! Thanks for posting.

[@Michelessex]

Great recipes; great teaching skills, succinct communicator, no empty babble AND cute as a button. Thank you and your recipes are delightful?

[@dimitriusa]

Yiasou Dimitra! I use a very similar lamb recipe for Easter (Pascha) with one minor exception. First, I cut many of the garlic cloves in half. Then I make deep cuts into the lamb with a pairing knife. Finally, I insert the garlic clove halves into the holes before adding the lemon marinade. You just can’t beat our authentic Greek recipes. Yiasas!

[@DimitrasDishes]

I do that too sometimes! Love it :) Thanks so much for being here!

[@angelotillas9782]

You know what I think? I think you know your stuff. Great job!!!

[@Nalijay]

I made this with shanks last night and it was amazing. I just halved the ingredients as there was less meat. Awesome recipe, thank you.

[@troyx6419]

How long did you leave it in the oven for lamb shank? And temperature? I am going to make it this weekend?

Just made this. Came out delicioso. Followed exact except my potatoes took a half hour and I opted out doing the 475 to crisp it up at the end. My lamb was a little crispy enough. Thank you :)

[@DimitrasDishes]

Yay! I'm so happy that you enjoy this recipe :) This makes for amazing pita pocket leftovers :) Enjoy!

Really nice recipe! Kinda get sick of 'normal' lamb as it's quite plentiful here, so this recipe was awesome and gave new flavours to my lamb!

[@deborahforonda152]

I made this today for Easter. I couldn't find bone in so i used 4 lbs boneless. Followed exactly, put the potatoes in at the beginning last half hour left at 350. It was wonderful my husband said dont lose the recipe. Thank you so much Dimitra and Happy Easter.

Po po po, that is the best looking arni me patates lemonates I have EVER seen. Like COOKING CHANNEL gorgeous! I have been cooking this dish my entire adult life and I don't think it has ever come out looking as perfect as that. Like other commenters, I too wish you had cut into the meat because I am curious how well you like it done. As I am sure you are aware, most Greeks like their lamb well done but I am partial to a bit of pink (I know, I know, vlasfimia! lol

[@DimitrasDishes]

lol!! vlasfimia!! haven't heard that in a while.. I do like mine well done too and I remember the day we shot this video, we were running low on time and I couldn't cut into it due to the battery life (about to die...haha!!) The best part of cooking is that we can customize things to our preferences :) All the best :)

[@nancywhitehead6397]

Watching this again i am reminded of our Chef who used to come to our home when my parents had large parties,. although they both cooked certain dishes themselves they also had Steve come to augment what they had done. I loved cooking, which i found and still find one of the more creative Arts and Steve was a great teacher; since i would watch him constantly preparing and cooking foods he taught me a lot of things only professional Chefs know and some of his secrets. One was to cut a garlic clove in half then to rub it into the wooden salad bowl to help season the bowl for the salad for Caesar Salad but the one that constantly pops into my mind is with any cut of beef, lamb or pork take the tip of a sharp knife and cut random slits into it and then take cloves of fresh garlic and cut slivers of it then take each sliver of garlic and put it into the slits you have made in the meat and then you can marinate it or just continue to season it before you cook it. By doing this you distribute the garlic into the meat and it is absolutely delicious. If you are not aware of this you might want to give it a try. Always enjoy your video's Dimitria...

[@DimitrasDishes]

Thanks for those tips especially since I love garlic!! I do inject garlic into my meats often when baking but I've never heard the salad bowl tip. Cool!!

[@nancywhitehead6397]

Steve had us keep one wooden salad bowl just for Caesar salad He then would always cut garlic in half rub it generously all over the bowl and then you assemble the salad and dressing but he would not wash the bowl You just wiped it down and let the wood season along with his Caesar dressing so that large wooden salad bowl never got water or soap on it but it was well seasoned and trust me that Caesar Salad was outstanding You could make a meal out of his salad Anchovies garlic Lemon Extra Virgin Olive oil etc etc I can still taste it today He spoiled us for any other Caesar Salad lol My mother kept that bowl separately and covered She sewed and made a special cover with a zipper just for that salad bowl lol

[@slim1one]

You are right about the slits and garlic. It's the only way my mom, and now I, make lamb. People always ask me how I make my lamb and I tell them that the garlic slit into the meat just gives it so much flavour.

[@rogrady6862]

@@DimitrasDishesCaesar salad wasn't on the menu when I grew up in the 40s & 50s, but our wooden salad bowl was rubbed with garlic & never washed. I seem to remember 1970s Joy of Cooking frowned on this habit as germ-ridden!
