Slow-Cooked Leg Of Lamb With Garlic, Lemon & Rosemary (In The Crockpot!)
- 1 leg of lamb (that will fit in your CrockPot - if not, get the butcher to cut off the shank end) - with or without bone
- 1 lemon
- 4-5 garlic cloves, sliced or crushed
- 1 Tbsp. fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 tsp. coarse salt
- 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup wine, chicken or beef stock, tomato juice or water
- On a chopping board, pat your lamb dry with paper towels. Finely grate about half the zest off the lemon and grind into a paste with the garlic, rosemary, oil, salt and pepper using a mortar and pestle. Rub the paste all over the lamb. If you like, let it sit on the countertop for half an hour or so, or refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
- Put it into the CrockPot. Add about half a cup of liquid. Squeeze the juice of the lemon overtop too. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
