EASTER LEG OF LAMB
We eat this every year for Easter. It is a family favorite. I normally cook half of a leg. If you cook a whole leg of lamb, double the recipe. You need to start this recipe at least 24 hours before cooking. It needs to marinade at least overnight.

Steps:
- Mix yogurt, 4 sprigs of rosemary, 1/2 bunch of parsley, smashed garlic, and zest of 1 1/2 lemons in a large bowl. Place the leg of lamb in the yogurt mixture and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 24 to 48 hours.
- The next day, preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spread onions on the bottom of a roasting pan. Remove lamb from the marinade, rinse and pat dry. Set aside.
- Place olive oil, salt, pepper, 4 sprigs of rosemary, 1/2 bunch of parsley, 1/2 head of garlic, and zest of 1 1/2 lemons in a food processor. Process until the mixture becomes a smooth paste. Rub leg of lamb with the paste, and place on top of the onions in the roasting pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Continue baking until desired doneness, 40 to 50 minutes for medium. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

GREEK EASTER LEG OF LAMB WITH GARLIC AND OREGANO
From Good Food Magazine March 1988. Ask your butcher to bone and butterfly the leg of lamb for you. If you must bone the leg yourself, start by trimming fat from leg. Then open out leg by cutting through meat to bone at thinnest muscle. Scrape meat away from bones and remove them. With leg turned boned side up, slash thickest muscles 2 or 3 times lengthwise to make leg as even in thickness as possible. (And now, after those instructions, I think I'll become a vegetarian!)

Steps:

- Heat oven to 425 degrees.
- Remove plastic wrap and place lamb on rack in roasting pan. Roast lamb until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of meat registers 130F for medium-rare, about 30 minutes.
- Remove lamb to platter, cover loosely, and let stand 15 minutes before carving. Cut meat across the grain into thin slices. Serve with juices collected on platter.
