Preparation
Season the leg of lamb with salt, pepper, and finely chopped herbs (rosemary and sage).
Quickly sear in a hot oven at 250°C until nicely browned.
Once well browned, deglaze the dish with white wine and broth.
Add the garlic cloves and roast for 1 hour and 30 min.
Remove from the oven and let rest, covered, for 15 min (Bénichon lamb should be well done, not pink).
Carve and serve.
Tips !
- Serve with mashed potatoes and red carrot salad.
