Crock Pot Honeyed Lamb Recipes

SLOW COOKER ROASTED LEG OF LAMB

Steps:

• Bring leg of lamb to room temperature, about 2 hours.
• Pour wine into a slow cooker. Mix lemon juice, honey, mustard, garlic, vinegar, rosemary, thyme, sea salt, and pepper together in a bowl until a thick paste forms. Massage paste into the lamb using your hands; gently place into the slow cooker.
• Cook on Low, without removing the cover, for 5 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C). Let lamb rest for 15 to 20 minutes.

LAMB FOR LEARNERS! REDCURRANT AND HONEY GLAZED LAMB (CROCK POT)

Steps:

• If the leg of lamb is too big for your crock-pot, cut through the joint between the main leg and shank.
• Put 2 tablespoons water into the crock-pot and place the lamb inside.
• Spoon the honey, Dijon mustard and redcurrant jelly over the top of the lamb.
• Sprinkle the crushed garlic/powdered garlic, salt & black pepper over the top of the lamb.
• Cook on high for at least 6 hours and up to 8 hours - YES, on high! If it is a 4lb to 5 lb leg of lamb, these are the perfect timings - it falls off the bone and is moist and tender.
• About 30 minutes before serving, carefully ladle most of the juices out of the crock pot and into a large mixing jug. Allow the juices to cool and skim the fat that rises to the surface.
• Place the juices into a saucepan and bring to the boil, boil vigorously until it has reduced by about a half - you now have the most wonderful gravy or sauce to serve alongside the lamb!
• Take the lamb out and allow to "rest" for about 10-15 minutes before carving and falling in love!

LAMB IN THE SLOW COOKER

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add lamb and cook until outside is browned, about 5 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and add onion to the oil in the skillet. Saute until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
• Place onion in the bottom of a slow cooker pot and place the lamb roast on top. Mix water, soy sauce, garlic, and onion soup mix together and pour over the roast. Cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours.
• Remove roast, cover lightly with foil, and let rest for 20 minutes before carving. Mix butter and flour into a paste. Add small pieces of this paste to the hot cooking liquid, mixing well to incorporate. Cook until sauce reaches desired thickness, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Slice roast thinly and serve with gravy.
