Preparing the leg of lamb
Cutting of the lowest part.
Cutting of the lowest part.(got a saw in my toolbox)
I'll cook the part with onions, garlic, rosemary and celery
I stick a knife in the meat to put pieces of garlic in
Then salt, pepper and more rosmary (a must with lamb)
Using a thermometer I'm in full control
While making yorkshire puddings and gratinated potatoes
Then carving it
Table is set
I am ready for this!
Merry Christmas my Friends!

Herbes for the sauce:Thyme, rosemary and juniper
crushed in a mortar

Then salt, pepper and more rosmary (a must with lamb)
Using a thermometer I'm in full control76 C is the way I like it.
The leg is 3,5 kg
It took from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm
and 100 C in the oven
to get ready
While making yorkshire puddings and gratinated potatoesthe meat was resting for an hour
wrapped in foil and a thick towel
Then carving itand tasting a little nibble... mmm! the tenderness!
The yorkshirepuddings are ready,
a bit to dark but still tasty!

BEAUTIFUL....I am doing a goat leg and I am using your juniper berries...we will eat it tomorrow, tonight is appetizers and small things...
I love lamb, but the majority outvoted me for pork loin... Christmas Eve was me doing my competition style baby back ribs- which came out really well! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Wow, your dinner looked fabulous......and our dinner table decor matches :)
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Ahh, I see you too have been enjoying some Yorkshire Puddings!
As a Greek, I naturally enjoy lamb and yours look delish.
