Don&#8217;t be intimidated by haunch of lamb leg, it&#8217;s actually very easy to cook with &#8211; you just have to allow the extra time in the oven compared to eg. a rolled joint of lamb because of the thigh bone. If you have a deboned leg then it won&#8217;t need as long in the oven so adjust your cooking time appropriately. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I made this recently for Mothering Sunday and the feedback (although somewhat biased of course!) was very positive. As per all my recipes, I try and use as few pans as possible to minimise the washing up and this is a one roasting tray recipe that also makes its own gravy! The water that you add to the roasting tray actually creates steam within the oven making sure the leg remains as succulent as ever. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images

time at the end for the meat to rest before you carve it. The meat continues cooking and the moisture is redistributed throughout resulting in moist meat. So it&#8217;s the same for this lamb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whilst the lamb is resting on a pre-heated tray tucked up under foil, you can finish off your gravy and the other trimmings to go with your roast. The usual trimmings will do &#8211; crispy roasted potatoes, veggies etc. as the lamb itself is already quite flavourful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery
