You have a 2.5kg leg of lamb.

Temp, timings, ingredients, covered or not covered.

Low and slow is best for lamb although I've not cooked it for years

Uncovered, rosemary and garlic. But then, I'd also be able to make 2 mini joints, some steaks and a shank.

Same here for me - and lamb stock cubes ‘watered down’ with olive oil. Tastes bloody delicious!

Roasted on a bed of root vegetables with a couple of garlic bulbs cut in half. Spring of rosemary, sprig of thyme. Lamb doesn't mind fast cooking it does need to rest once cooked though. Use the veg as a side and save a bit for the gravy .

Long and low in an enamel lidded roaster with dimples so it self bastes. On a trivet of roughly chopped veg. Studded with garlic.

Then make the gravy from the juices adding a stockpot and a big spoon of red currant jelly, as lamb can take the sweetness really well.

Low and slow greek style...so simple.

So cut incisions all over the lamb stick garlic cloves, then rub with paprika. Make a braising stock and stick it all in the slow cooker for 6h on low.. every hour spoon some of the stock over it

Pre heat the oven 20mins before the end top the leg with thyme wrap in foil and give it 25 mins at 200°c - and serve

Goes really well with slow goosefat roasted garlic,rosemary potatoes.

Coat in tandoori paste and leave for an hour or two, few slices into the meat to poke cloves of garlic deep within, lay it on a bed of finely sliced onion, long slow roast, covered in foil for the first half, then uncovered for the second.

I begin by throwing out the horrible rich lamb, and then buying a side of beef. After this, I cook the beef.

Make slits in it and put shit loads of garlic in them with butter and rosemary. Drizzle with olive oil, cover and cook for however long it says on the packaging. Sometimes sit it on onions, carrots and more garlic. I don't use the juices for gravey as I think it's too fatty.

I make about 10 holes in the leg and stuff a little bit of anchovy, garlic and rosemary in each. Then I drizzle a little anchovy oil over it. I give the lamb, uncovered, the 30 minute sizzle at 220 degrees. Then pour over a glass of dry white wine, turn oven down and cook for a further hour at 160 degrees. Take out and check with a meat thermometer and cook further according to how you like your meat. It's the best way I've tried and never fails.
