Greek Roast Lamb And Potatoes
- 1 Half leg of lamb
- 10 to 12 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges or two-inch cubes
- 5 cloves garlic
- 3 to 4 tbsp french mustard (the dark variety - not dijon!)
- Juice of one large orange
- 3 pinches oregano
- 2 tbsps olive oil
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees celsius (375 - 400 farenheit). In large bowl, whisk together the orange juice, mustard, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Once combined, add potatoes to bowl and coat thoroughly with mixture. Transfer the potatoes to a large roasting pan.
- Next, stuff the garlic cloves into the lamb. Place the lamb into the bowl with the remaining orange juice mixture; coat thoroughly and transfer to roasting pan on top of potatoes. If any of the orange juice mixture remains in the bowl, pour it over the lamb and potatoes.
- Bake uncovered until potatoes are done and lamb is medium / medium-well (approximately 60 - 90 minutes). Check every 20 - 30 minutes while baking, and add a bit water if you find the potatoes are drying out.
- NOTE: If you prefer, use beef, pork, or chicken for this dish.
