My favourite roast and a real treat, we only have it very occasionally as it’s so expensive. I haven’t given exact timings as this will depend on the size of your joint and your oven strength.

Cooking Instructions

2 hours
  1. 1

    Take the lamb joint out of any packaging and allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes while you preheat the oven to 190 C.

  2. 2

    Peel the garlic cloves and slice them into thick slices as shown below. You want them to be thick so that they are robust enough to push into the meat.

  3. 3

    Use a sharp knife to cut slits into the meat, about 1 inch deep. Push a garlic slice deeply into each slit.

  4. 4

    Now cut your rosemary into 2 or 3 lengths and push a rosemary stem in alongside each garlic slice. Woody thick stalks are easiest to manipulate. Put any remaining stems of rosemary underneath the joint.

  5. 5

    Season generously with sea salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil.

  6. 6

    Roast in the centre of the oven for the time calculated based on the size of your joint. I tend to cover with foil at the halfway point to stop it drying out.

  7. 7

    Allow to rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. Pull the rosemary stems out before you cut the joint.

  8. 8

    Serve with roasties and mint sauce 😍
