Ingredients
1 tablespoon (15 ml) Robertsons Sage
2 kg leg of lamb
2 - 3 tablespoons olive oil
1 - 2 heads garlic, halved across
1 tablespoon (15 ml) Robertsons Rosemary
200 g baby onions
1 cup beef or chicken stock
1 cup dry red wine
1/2 cup soft brown sugar
Salt and black pepper
Instructions
- Trim any excess fat from lamb, season and brush with oil.
- Place garlic, sage, rosemary and onions in a casserole dish, just large enough to take the lamb. A cast iron casserole dish is ideal.
- Add lamb and pour over the stock, sugar and wine. Cover with a tight fitting lid or foil. Bake at 120 C for approximately 3- 4 hours or until meltingly tender. Remove lamb and keep warm while reducing cooking liquids on top of the stove to a saucy consistency.
- Carve and serve with Mediterranean beans or a side salad of rocket leaves.
