Autumn Braised Leg Of Lamb

It's that time of the year when we look forward to turning the oven on and filling the home with all the old familiar comforting aroma's. Leg of Lamb with mint sauce does it for me!

1 tsp dry Colman's English Mustard powder
1 tsp ground Ginger
1 tblsp plain (all-purpose) Flour
salt & freshly ground pepper
3 1/2 lb (approx) Leg New Zealand/Australian Lamb
2 Leeks, washed and sliced
2 carrots, sliced
6 medium Potatoes, quartered
1/2pt Cider
2 sprigs fresh rosemary (you can use dried)

Preheat oven to 375 deg F
Mix together the mustard, ginger, flour and salt & pepper to taste. Rub all over the Lamb, pressing it in. Put all the vegetables into a large covered casserole or roasting-tin big enough to take the Lamb. Pour in the cider and sprigs of rosemary. Put all the vegetables in the pan and then place the leg of Lamb on top, cover with a tight-fitting lid
or foil and roast for one hour.

Uncover and return to oven at the same temperature until tender and depending on how pink you like it, (another 1/4 hr for really pink, 1/2hr for just pink and add a whole hour for thoroughly cooked through, which I do not recommend. Place on a nice warmed serving plate with all the vegetables and juices around it.

I like to serve roast Lamb with Batchelors dried Peas (Mushy) did you forget to soak them? Then open a tin of Batchelor's Mushy peas. Of course no Lamb dinner is complete without Mint Sauce, I recommend either Coleman's Classic Mint Sauce or
The Little Pickle & Spice Company Mint Sauce obviously made up with Sarson's Malt Vinegar all available from our web site, just click on the links.

Inspired by the late Jennifer Paterson's Seasonal Receipts (old fashioned word for Recipes) Jennifer was half of the doughty 'Two Fat Ladies' duo.
