Ingredients
  

  • 2 kg lamb leg with bone (4.4lb)
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon of dried coriander
  • 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary
  • pinch of salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups of beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons of flour

Instructions
 

Cooking the Lamb leg

  • In a large mixing bowl, mix the spices together along with the olive oil.
  • Rub the leg of lamb generously with the spice mixture.
  • Place in the fridge for 10 minutes to allow it to marinate.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven for 410°F (210°C).
  • Reduce the temperature to 360°f (180°C) and place the lamb leg in a roasting tray and cook for 90 minutes, flipping the chicken over every 30 minutes or until the lamb looks golden brown and cooked.
  • Once the lamb is cooked, move it to a serving plate.

Making the gravy

  • After moving the lamb leg to a serving place, move the meat juices that were in the roasting tray into a small saucepan on the stove.
  • Add the beef broth to the sauce pan and heat the meat juices at medium temperature for 5 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, place the flour along with a tablespoon of water and mix to make a roux.
  • Mix the roux in to the saucepan and let the mixture come together for 5 minutes until it starts to thicken.
  • Serve warm alongside the lamb leg.
