    Leg of Lamb 7 Hours Delicious, flavorful, melting... a delight! My suggestion: However, 6 hours of cooking is enough, and indeed, the skin is really not necessary: the leg is fatty enough!
  • PierreDecember 29, 2018
    As a side dish To accompany, roasted new potatoes with the skin, finely chopped fresh rosemary, coarse salt, and a drizzle of olive oil, enjoy...

    Too hot I thought the leg of lamb should be cooked at low temperature, so why set the oven to 170°C? My suggestion: In the end, deglaze with white wine.

    Problem: Temperature Temperature too high, tomatoes are not recommended: too much juice. My suggestion: Make the recipe in a Dutch oven, sealing the lid during cooking (set to 160°C for 7 hours): 100 ml of white wine, 250 ml of veal stock, 1 carrot and 1 onion, all diced finely, 3 cloves of garlic, 1 bay leaf, thyme, and 200 g of pork rind. After removing the fat from the leg of lamb and the skin, sear it on both sides in butter. Sauté the diced vegetables, place them in the Dutch oven with the pork rind, add the leg of lamb, white wine, and veal stock, bay leaf, and thyme, season with salt and pepper, and seal the lid. Place in a preheated oven at 160°C, cooking for 7 hours (no alcohol).

    Slow cooking at 170 degrees??? There must be a mistake!!! It would be wise to correct the temperature and bring it down to 100 degrees.
