SLOW COOKED LEG OF LAMB RECIPE - BBC GOOD FOOD



Slow cooked leg of lamb recipe - BBC Good Food image

Slow cooked, melt-in-the-mouth meat that needs seven hours in the oven but little more than seven minutes work from the cook

Provided by Orlando Murrin

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Total Time 7 hours 45 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 7 hours 30 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large leg of lamb, about 3kg/6lb 8oz
4 onions, sliced
8 garlic cloves, peeled, but left whole
4 carrots, leave whole if small or quarter lengthways
300ml white wine
300ml stock, use what you have
2 tbsp Armagnac or Madeira, optional, to finish
thyme sprigs, to finish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 120C/fan 100C/gas ½. Put your largest lidded casserole on the hob and brown the seasoned leg of lamb on all sides - do this very thoroughly until it is a good dark brown as it will not brown during the cooking. (If you don't do it now, it will end up beige.) If the lamb sticks, add a drizzle of oil - legs of lamb differ. Allow 10 mins on a high heat and put on the cooker fan to remove the smoke. Pour away any fat that has collected in the bottom of the pan.
  • Throw in the vegetables, followed by the wine and stock. Season and bring to the boil, then clap on the lid and put in the oven. Bake for 7 hrs, turning twice. After 5 hrs the meat will be cooked and offer no resistance to the knife.
  • There is no need to rest the meat when cooked in this way, but to finish the sauce, transfer the meat and vegetables to a serving dish. Strain the sauce into a jug and pour or blot away the fat with kitchen paper. Pour the sauce into a pan then boil the liquid hard to reduce by a quarter, by which time it will be rich and flavoursome. Adjust seasoning, add the Armagnac if you wish, and serve alongside the lamb, which should be served with a spoon, a la cuillère as the French call it.

  • Remove foil, lower heat to 375 degrees and roast for 40 to 50 minutes, or until lamb reaches desired temperature. Remove and let lamb stand about 30 minutes as the lamb continues to cook. To test the temperature of the meat, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the leg without touching the bone. For rare lamb, the thermometer should register 140 degrees. For medium, the thermometer should register 145 degrees.

Pour in the wine and stock. Cook on low for 8hrs until tender. Halfway through the cooking time, quickly open the pot, turn the lamb joint over and cover quickly with the lid again (don’t leave the pot uncovered for longer than necessary, as the meat will take longer to cook).
