Cooking Steps

Start cooking the lamb
1
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
  • Season butterflied lamb leg all over and place, fat-side down, in a large frying pan (no need for oil!).
  • Place pan over medium heat and cook undisturbed until golden, 10-12 minutes.
  • Increase the heat to high and sear lamb leg on all sides for 30 seconds. Transfer, fat-side up, to a lined oven tray. 

TIP: Starting the lamb in a cold pan helps the fat melt without.

Make the marinade
2
  • Meanwhile, pick and finely chop rosemary.
  • In a small bowl, combine Aussie spice blend, rosemary and a generous drizzle of olive oil. 
Add the marinade
3
  • Once lamb is on the oven tray, pour over marinade and evenly rub over all sides of the lamb with a spoon. 
Roast the lamb
4
  • Roast lamb for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
  • Remove from oven and rest for 10 minutes.

TIP: The lamb will keep cooking as it rests!

Make the jus
5
  • While the lamb is resting, return the frying pan to medium-high heat.
  • Cook the cracked black pepper until fragrant, 30 seconds.
  • Add red wine jus, any lamb resting juices and a splash of water. Cook, stirring, until warmed through, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
Finish & serve
6
  • Using a roasting fork (to keep the lamb steady) and a sharp knife, slice lamb.
  • Drizzle over remaining roasting juices from the dish.
  • Serve with red wine pepper jus. Enjoy!
