Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, vinegar, rosemary, garlic, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place lamb in a large shallow dish with marinade, and turn to coat. Cover; marinate 1 hour at room temperature or up to overnight in refrigerator, turning occasionally. (Bring to room temperature before grilling.)
- Heat grill to medium-high. Thread several metal skewers through lamb in both directions to hold meat together during cooking.
- Grill lamb until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers 140 degrees for medium rare, 10 to 15 minutes per side. Let the meat rest, covered, about 10 minutes. Remove the skewers. Slice the meat thinly, against the grain where possible.

Steps:
- Combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large non-reactive bowl. Add the lamb, making sure it is covered with marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator, covered, overnight or for up to 3 days.
- Bring the lamb to room temperature. Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. Scrape the marinade off the lamb, wipe the meat with paper towels, and season it generously with salt and pepper. Brush the grill with oil to keep the lamb from sticking, and grill on both sides until the internal temperature is 120 to 125 degrees for rare. This will take 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how hot the grill is.
- Remove the lamb to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 20 minutes. Then slice and serve.
BROILED AND SLOW-ROASTED BUTTERFLIED LEG OF LAMB WITH CUMIN AND GARLIC
Who says making a feast has to take forever? For large gatherings like Passover and Easter, leg of lamb is the roast of choice, and arranged on a platter garnished with herbs, it makes a stunning centerpiece. Buying leg of lamb butterflied from the butcher will leave you time to socialize while it is slow-roasting without worrying about uneven cooking.

Steps:
- Mix oil, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin and oregano; spread paste on both sides of the lamb and let stand for an hour until meat comes to room temperature.
- Adjust oven rack to upper or upper-middle position (depending on lamb's thickness) and preheat broiler on high for at least 10 minutes.
- Place lamb, cut side up, on a large wire rack set over a foil-lined roasting pan. Broil, moving pan so entire surface browns evenly, about 8 minutes. Turn lamb over; continue to broil until well browned on the other side, about 8 minutes longer. Turn off broiler, remove lamb from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Stick a meat thermometer into the thickest portion of the lamb; return it to the oven. Roast for a total of 50 minutes to 1 hour, until thermometer registers a rosy-pink 140 degrees. Check lamb several times after 30 minutes. If lamb gets done sooner, simply turn down oven to 170 degrees until ready to serve.
- As soon as lamb comes out of the oven, squeeze on lemon juice and sprinkle with fresh herbs. Carve, slicing across the grain when possible. Arrange on a platter, drizzle with accumulated juices, and serve.

Steps:
- 1. In a food processor, process together the garlic, ginger, green chili peppers, rosemary, and mint leaves until minced. Add the lemon juice, honey, garam masala, cumin, salt, and oil, and process again to make a smooth paste.2. Place the lamb in a flat non-reactive baking dish. With a long-pronged barbecue fork or the pointed tip of a thin knife, prick it all over. Then make 2-inch long, deep cuts, each about 2 inches apart, over the entire outside surface of the lamb.3. Smear the paste well over both sides of the meat, making sure to work it into the cut.sections. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator at least 12 and up to 48 hours, turning a few times.4. TO GRILL: Preheat the grill to medium-high (375°F to 400°F). Place the marinated lamb on the grill, open-faced with the cut (bone) side down, and cook until the bottom is browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Turn over and grill until the second side is browned, 12 to 15 minutes.5. Fold a large sheet of aluminum foil into 3 layers, large enough to cover the lamb. Place the lamb in the foil and wrap loosely. Continue to grill, turning twice or three times, until the meat is tender and the juices run dear, about 20 to 30 minutes. (Open the wrapped lamb to check after 20 minutes, and every few minutes after that until it is done.)TO BROIL: Preheat the broiler. Place the marinated lamb on a roasting griddle or broiler pan with a tray underneath to catch the juices and broil, by positioning the pan in the lower-center section of the oven or broiler. Turning two or three times and baste with any juices until the meat is well-browned and tender, 40 to 50 minutes.6. Heat the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and add the mint and black pepper they should sizzle upon contact with the hot oil. Remove from heat and mix in the paprika. Baste the lamb with this mixture and grill or broil another 5 minutes. Line a serving platter with chopped lettuce and tomato wedges, place the lamb on top, and serve.From "1,000 Indian Recipes."

Steps:
- Mix the butter and oil in a bowl, then stir in the spices, thyme, garlic, lemon zest and juice. Add the harissa, 1 tsp salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, and mix well.
- Put the butterflied lamb (see step-by-step guide) in a large shallow dish and spoon over the marinade. Using your hands, rub it all over the meat. Cover loosely with foil or cling film and leave to marinate for at least 2 hrs, or overnight in the fridge.
- Light the barbecue, adding plenty of coals. When it is ready, add the lamb, fat-side down, and cook on a fairly high heat for 5 mins until well browned. Turn over and cook for another 5 mins to brown the other side.
- Move the coals to the sides of the barbecue to reduce the heat under the meat and cook more gently for 30-40 mins, turning occasionally. This timing will give you pink meat.
- Remove the meat to a large board and cover tightly with foil. Leave to rest for 10-15 mins.
- For the sauce, fold the harissa, a little salt and the coriander into the yogurt. Cut the lamb into thick slices and serve with the sauce and couscous, if you like.

Steps:
- Lay the lamb out flat and sprinkle with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Put the oil in a baking dish large enough to hold the lamb. Add the lamb and sprinkle on both sides with mustard seed, cumin, garlic, thyme, fennel seeds, rosemary, bay leaves and lemon juice. Turn and rub the lamb so it is evenly coated with the ingredients. Marinate in a cool place for one or two hours, or up to six hours in a refrigerator. If refrigerated, let the lamb return to room temperature before cooking.
- Preheat a charcoal grill or the oven broiler.
- Remove lamb from marinade and reserve marinade. If a grill is used, put the lamb flat on the grill. If the broiler is used, place the lamb under the broiler 4 to 5 inches from the heat. Cook the lamb uncovered on the grill or under the broiler about 15 minutes. Turn and cook 10 to 15 minutes on the second side. For medium or well-done meat, cook longer.
- Meanwhile, bring the reserved marinade to a boil in a baking pan large enough to hold the lamb, stirring. Remove from heat, and swirl in butter and parsley. Transfer the lamb to the marinade pan, cover loosely with foil and keep warm. Let the meat rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Slice thinly and serve with the pan gravy.

BUTTERFLIED LEG OF LAMB WITH CARAMELIZED ONION BBQ SAUCE
Steps:
- Make the marinade. Whirl all the marinade ingredients together in a food processor. Needle the lamb all over with a fork, and nestle it in a nonreactive bowl. Spoon the marinade onto the meat and slather it around til the meat is well coated. Cover and marinate in the fridge overnight.
- Prepare a hot coal bed and mound the coals on one side of the grill. When you're ready to cook, scrape off all the marinade and pat the meat dry. Lay the lamb, boned side down, directly over the coals. Sear it for 4 minutes. Flip it over and sear the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes. Slide the meat away from the coals, to cook it with indirect heat. Cover the grill and adjust the heat so that it's 325° to 350° inside. Roast for 50 to 60 minutes, til the internal temperature reaches about 145°.
- Get the sauce cooking while the meat roasts. Drop the butter in a saucepan and melt over low heat. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook slowly, stirring every now and then, til deeply caramelized. Add the broth, Mutha Sauce, and cumin. Keep warm over low heat.
- Check the meat with an instant-read thermometer, and once it reaches 145°, pull it off the grill and let it rest for 15 minutes. Carve the lamb across the grain into 1/4-inch slices on a cutting board with a well to catch all those delicious juices. You might have to remove some odd connectors or cut the muscle clods into more manageable sizes, but do what you've gotta do and keep carving across the grain. Arrange the meat on a platter.
- Pour all the accumulated meat juices into the sauce, and boost the heat up for a minute or two to get it nice and hot. Stir in the mint and then ladle the sauce over the sliced lamb. It's ready to go.
