Christmas Eve Lamb

Ingredients:
1 Lamb Leg
1 tbsp Cumin
1 tbsp Coriander
Salt &Pepper
4 Sprigs of Rosemary 
2 med. Cooking Onions
5 Cloves of Garlic
1 med. Eggplant
2 Carrots
2 Turnips
Maple Syrup
Cooking Oil 


Preheat oven to 425 f (220 C)

Your lamb might come already wrapped up. Leave it that way! But if it's not, it would be ideal to wrap it up with some cooking string or twine. 


Now comes the messy part! Take 1 Tbsp Coriander and 1 Tbsp of Cumin (my favorite) and mix in a bowl. Now you're going to generously rub that all over your lamb! Make sure the whole thing is covered evenly. 

Cut little slices in the lamb and fill with Garlic and Rosemary Sprigs. 

Pour some red wine over your Lamb. 

Put Lamb into preheated over for 10 minutes. 

Reduce oven to 315 F (160 C) for 2 1/2 (dependent on size)

Baste every 20 - 30 minutes. 

 Cut your vegetables into larger chunks. Put a little vegetable oil in your casserole dish so the veggies don't stick. Load up your veggies into the dish. Remember you can add whatever veggies you'd like. Make it your own! 

Pour some maple syrup over your veggies and mix it around. Pour some white wine on it if you'd like. Cover with lid or tin foil and bake for 30 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
