This is a wonderful stuffing for lamb I made this the other night with lamb fillets. I sliced them very carefully down the centre being careful not to go all the way through, I opened them out and pounded with a meat mallet. I then placed the stuffing on one side and rolled up and secured with kitchen string just as you would a boned leg. I was only making for 2, hence the lamb fillets and I have been testing recipes for the Christmas table, this one is going on my list it was superb. I served mine over parsnip mash and fresh vegetables with a homemade gravy. If you would like to read more reviews of this recipe please click here.
Ingredients
4lbs Leg of lamb (boned weight)
Salt and pepper
Kitchen string
For the stuffing
1/2 Tablespoon olive oil

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Trim the lamb of excess fat. Open it out flat and season the inside with salt and pepper.
3. Heat oil in a pan, and cook the onion until soft. Toast the walnuts in a dry pan until just turning brown. Break the goat’s cheese into little nuggets.
4. Gently mix all the stuffing ingredients together, bind with the egg and season with salt and pepper. Spread the stuffing on the opened piece of lamb. Roll it up and tie at intervals with string.
5. Season the outside of the lamb with salt and pepper and roast in the oven for 15 minutes.
6. Turn the heat down to 375 degrees F, and cook for another hour, then serve- the lamb will be pink.
