Prep Time:

Cook Time:
2 hrs and 10 mins

Total Time:
2 hrs and 20 mins

Yield:
8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1.5 kg lamb leg
  • 45 ml of vegetable oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 450 ml plain yoghurt
  • 3 tsp gram masala
  • 1 tsp finely grated ginger
  • ¼ tsp medium-hot chilli powder
  • 5–6 saffron strands
  • ¼ tsp mustard seeds
  • 450 ml veal, beef or chicken stock

Instructions

  1. Using a sharp knife, make 10–12 deep slits into the meat.
  2. Mix all remaining ingredients, except stock, together to make a marinade, and smear it thickly all over the lamb using a basting knife. Make sure that some of the marinades soak into the slits in the meat, to ensure it cooks well.
  3. Place on a plate and cover, then marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  4. Preheat oven to 180°C.
  5. Put the lamb in a roasting pan and cover loosely with foil, ensuring it doesn't touch lamb. Cook for 2 hours, or until meat is tender, basting lamb about halfway through cooking time with juices from pan and stock. This step prevents lamb from drying on inside.
  6. Remove foil and cook for another 8–10 minutes.
  7. Take the meat out of the oven, cover loosely with foil and rest in a warm place for about 15 minutes. At this point, the meat should be almost falling off the bone. (An optional final step is to gently place the lamb on an outdoor grill or barbecue so exterior turns nice and brown.) Serve.
