  Delicious. First time I have ever cooked lamb and it went down very well with my family. I also made the new potatoes with garlic and lemon. Makes a lovely roast for a warm day.

  This was wonderful! I cooked half a leg of lamb at 180C and shorter time, and it was yummm I had it with a butternut squash, carrot and spring onion roast.

  I made this gravy today to go with another roast lamb recipe on this website (lamb with boulangere potatoes), it was really tasty and very easy to make. Only complaint was that it didnt make enough!
