Glazed Lamb Pot Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven so the lamb will sit in the middle of the oven.
• Peel 6 of the cloves of garlic and place them in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and butter. Process until the garlic and rosemary are finely minced. Thoroughly coat the top and sides of the lamb with the rosemary mixture. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Toss the potatoes and remaining unpeeled garlic in a bowl with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place in the bottom of a large roasting pan. Place the lamb on top of the potatoes. Roast for 20 minutes. Turn the heat down to 350 degrees F and roast for another 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until a meat thermometer registers 130 to 135 degrees F for medium-rare. Place the lamb on a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice and serve with the potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275. Trim most of fat from the surface of the lamb racks and place them in a large roasting pan. Combine salt, garlic and herbs and rub over lamb. Place in oven and roast for 2 hours. Remove pan from oven and turn ribs, then return to oven for 30 to 60 minutes longer, or until the lamb is just tender and starting to pull away from the bone. Remove pan from oven and set aside.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze. Combine vinegar and honey in a small sauce pan placed over moderate heat. Add fennel, coriander, black pepper and Aleppo chili and bring to a slight simmer. Lower heat and allow the mixture to reduce by half. Remove from heat and whisk in the cold butter.
• Light a fire in grill or preheat broiler in oven. Combine coriander, chili, salt, lemon and parsley in a small bowl and set aside. Slice ribs into individual pieces, cutting between each bone. When coals are covered with gray ash and fire is hot, put chops on grill directly over coals or on a pan in the broiler. Using a pastry brush, coat lamb lightly with glaze and continue to cook, turning occasionally, until the meat begins to turn golden and crisp, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with the topping.

Steps:

• Stir 1/4 cup pomegranate molasses, garlic, rosemary, kosher salt, black pepper, Aleppo pepper, mint, and cumin together in a bowl.
• Arrange the butterflied leg of lamb onto a work surface with the fatty side facing down. Cut 2 deep slashes in each of the the fleshy ends of the meat. Flip the lamb and cut 10 to 20 shallow slashes across the surface of the fat.
• Spread 3/4 the pomegranate molasses mixture onto the meat-side of the lamb to coat completely. Fold meat together and turn into a large bowl. Spread remaining pomegranate mixture over the fatty side of the meat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a roasting rack in the bottom of a roasting pan.
• Remove lamb from marinade and discard excess marinade. Gather roast and place onto a work surface with fatty side facing upwards. Tie the center section of the roast with kitchen twine to cinch the roast together. Repeat ties four times along the length of the roast.
• Season roast with salt and transfer to prepared roasting pan. Pour water below the rack to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven until hot and slightly pink in the center, about 1 3/4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 135 degrees F (57 degrees C). Rest for 15 minutes, transfer to a plate, and brush with remaining pomegranate molasses.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F; oil roasting pan.
• Combine onion, parsley, thyme, rosemary, sage, lemon peel, garlic, and salt. Mix well.
• In a separate bowl, combine honey and lemon juice.
• Place lamb meat side up on a flat surface. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Brush with honey mixture and sprinkle with herb mixture. Roll and tie. Rub roast with honey mixture.
• Place roast on a roasting rack in the oiled pan in the preheated oven, allowing 20 to 25 minutes per pound for medium rare. Brush with honey mixture every 20 minutes. When all the honey mixture is used, brush with the pan drippings.
• Let roast stand for 5 to 10 minutes before carving.
• Add 1/2 cup water and deglaze pan. Thicken if desired and serve with lamb.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Move oven rack to the center position.
• In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, garlic, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss in 2 tablespoons olive oil to moisten mixture. Set aside.
• Season the rack all over with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy oven proof skillet over high heat. Sear rack of lamb for 1 to 2 minutes on all sides. Set aside for a few minutes. Brush rack of lamb with the mustard. Roll in the bread crumb mixture until evenly coated. Cover the ends of the bones with foil to prevent charring.
• Arrange the rack bone side down in the skillet. Roast the lamb in preheated oven for 12 to 18 minutes, depending on the degree of doneness you want. With a meat thermometer, take a reading in the center of the meat after 10 to 12 minutes and remove the meat, or let it cook longer, to your taste. Let it rest for 5 to 7 minutes, loosely covered, before carving between the ribs.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Peel 3 of the garlic cloves and slice; make slits all over the meat and insert slices of garlic and small sprigs of rosemary; season well with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole or roasting pan and add the shallots; cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to turn golden.
• Add the potatoes, parsnips, carrots, and remaining unpeeled cloves of garlic; stir to coat in the oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Place the lamb on top and pour half of the red wine on the lamb.
• Cover the pan well and bake for 1 hour, basting occasionally with any pan juices.
• Combine the honey and soy sauce thoroughly; after the first hour of cooking, pour the honey mnixture over the lamb and baste.
• Return the lamb to the oven and bake, uncovered for 1-1 1/2 hours more or until the meat is cooked and the vegetables are tender, basting the meat and vegetables occasionally.
• Remove the roast and the vegetables from the pan and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes before carving, but keep the vegetables warm.
• Place the cooking pan on the stove, stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
• Blend in the stock and remaining wine; bring to a boil and adjust the seasoning.
• Place roast on platter with vegetables, garnished with rosemary sprigs, if desired.
