I love lamb and it is so easy to make.

One  five-pound leg of lamb

8 cloves of garlic

One teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon rosemary

One tablespoon butter

3 sliced potatoes

Wash and dry the lamb

Poke 8 holes in the roast just deep enough to fit a clove of garlic

Season with the salt, pepper, butter and rosemary

Place in a roasting pan

Place your meat thermometer in the roast

Add the sliced potatoes around the roast

Turn the potatoes once to get all the brown from the roast on them

Bake at 350 degrees till the meat thermometer reads medium

This tales about 1 1/2 to 2 hours

Serve with green beans,  rice pilaf, humus, pita bread, tomato and onion salad with feta cheese and olives.

I also like mint jelly with lamb.
