Ingredients:
Preparation:
The morning before start preparing the lamb. With a sharp and pointy knife make little incisions at regular intervals into the leg and stick in the garlic cloves and little twigs of rosemary. Season really well with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and place onto a little baking tray with a high rim and cover with cling film. Place in the fridge for the night.
Take it out a couple of hours before cooking so that the meat reaches room temperature.
Switch on the BBQ (or oven) to 220 C and place the baking tray on the grill closing the lid. Roast the half leg of lamb for about 20 minutes with 50 g butter , turning regularly.

Then lower the temperature to 150 C for about 1 hour 25 minutes. Keep turning the roast regularly, scraping the bottom of the pan and keep it moist with water and gravy granules that you have mixed according to the package instructions. Never let it dry out.
When you take it out of the BBQ cover it with aluminium foil and let it rest for about 20 minutes before carving it. As it is a whole piece of meat it will not go cold.
Carve and serve. Enjoy!
