Tandoori Leg Of Lamb Lcbo Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl combine yogurt with ALL remaining ingredients (except the leg of lamb) whisk to blend well.
• Place the leg of lamb in rack in a roasting pan.
• Coat the leg with yogurt mixture all over.
• Cover the lamb with plastic wrap (do not use foil to cover the lamb).
• Refrigerate for 24 hours.
• Set oven to 375 degrees.
• Roast the lamb uncovered for about 1-1/2 hours (for medium-rare cook until temperature reads 125F on a meat thermometer, make certain that the thermometer does not touch the bone).
• Let rest for 15 minutes before serving.
• Delicious!

Steps:

• Trim any excess fat from the lamb. With a mallet or heavy frying pan, pound the lamb at its thickest points until it is uniformly about 3 inches thick. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
• In a medium bowl combine the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Rub the lamb all over with this mixture, place it in a roasting pan, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 3 hours.
• When you are ready to cook, build a fire to one side of a covered grill, using enough coals to fill a shoe box. When the flames have died down and the coals are covered with grey ash, spread one-third of them on the empty side of the grill. Place the lamb on the grill directly over the coals and cook for about 15 minutes a side for medium rare. If the lamb begins to overcook on the exterior or if you have flare-ups while cooking, move the lamb to the cooler part of the fire and continue cooking.
• When a meat thermometer in the center of the lamb registers 124 degrees, remove the meat from the grill, allow it to rest for about 15 minutes, slice thin and serve.
