If you like herbs a lot, use honey instead of oil & add more fresh herbs on top.

Ingredients

  • Leg of lamb
  • Garlic cloves
  • Fresh rosemary
  • Fresh thyme
  • Ground coriander
  • Red wine

Directions

Lightly oil top of lamb. Cut small slits into meat at intervals to suit, depending on how much garlic you like. Peel cloves & cut into slices, insert these into the slits. Break rosemary into peices & insert them into slits as well. Chop thyme finely and spread over meat, then sprinkle ground coriander over. Pour 1 cup red wine into baking dish with a little water. Bake as usual for size of roast, basting every now & then to get wine absorbed into meat.


I usually put meat on a stand (much like a cake rack) to reduce fat absorbtion.
