Roast Lamb With Wine Gravy Recipes

ROAST LEG OF LAMB WITH RED WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, remove the thin membrane and most of the fat from the lamb.
• Cut about 25 tiny slits all over the lamb; insert the garlic slivers.
• Combine the oil, lemon juice and rosemary; brush over the lamb.
• Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• On a greased rack in a roasting pan, roast the lamb in a 325 degree F oven for 1-3/4 to 2 hours, 25 to 30 minutes per pound, or until the meat thermometer registers 140 degrees F for rare or 160 degrees F for medium.
• Remove the lamb to a platter; cover loosely with foil and let stand for 15 minutes.
• To make the gravy, skim the fat from the pan.
• Add onion and cook over medium heat, stirring often, for 4 minutes or until softened.
• Pour in the wine and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil for 1 minute, stirring to scrape up the brown bits.
• Add the stock and return to the boil; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until reduced to about 1 cup.
• Mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water; stir into the stock mixture and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until thickened.
• Blend in the tomato paste.
• Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Strain if desired.
• Slice the lamb and serve with the gravy.

HERB-CRUSTED LEG OF LAMB WITH RED WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Use a sharp knife to make little slits all over the lamb, then insert a slice of garlic into each hole. Tip the onions and carrot into a large flameproof roasting tin, then place the lamb on top and season. Pour 250ml water into the base of the tin and roast in the oven for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, make the crust by mixing together all the ingredients and seasoning well. Remove the lamb from the oven and turn the heat down to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Brush the lamb all over with the mustard, then pack on the crust in a thick layer - don't worry if any falls in the tin, this will be used in the gravy later (you probably won't use the entire crust, so set aside what's left for later). Return the lamb to the oven and cook for a further 1 hr 30 mins. Check the lamb during cooking and add more water to the base of the tin if it dries out.
• Remove the lamb from the tin, cover lightly with foil and leave to rest for 30-40 mins - if covered too tightly, the crust will go soggy.
• To make the gravy, put the roasting tin with the vegetables still in it directly on the heat and whisk in the flour. Cook for 1 min, then add the wine, scraping any flour from the bottom of the tin. Let it bubble for 1 min, then pour in the stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer gently for 10-15 mins until thickened, stirring in a little of the reserved crust for a thicker gravy. Strain the gravy through a sieve into a pan, discarding the vegetables left in the sieve. Add mustard to taste and stir through the butter. Keep warm until ready to serve.
