Ingredients
- 900 g leg of lamb butterflied, boneless; 2 pounds
For the marinade
- 200 ml red wine 7 fluid ounces
- 3 tbsp orange marmalade
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 red onion very finely chopped
- 3 garlic mince, cloves
- 1 tsp rosemary very finely chopped, fresh leaves
- salt sea salt and freshly ground
- black pepper sea salt and freshly ground
Instructions
- Put the lamb and marinade in a ceramic dish, cover with foil and chill for at least a couple of hours or overnight.
- Pat the lamb dry with some kitchen towel and reserve the marinade. Place fat side down your barbecue and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes.
- Turn over and brush with the marinade. Cook for another 10 minutes.
- Once again, turn the lamb over and brush with the marinade. Cook for a total of 40 minutes, basting with the marinade as you go.
- Remove from the heat and leave to rest for 10 minutes. Carve the lamb into slices and serve with chilli jam, sriracha or hot pepper jelly and a big green salad.
Notes
- To cook on the stovetop Heat a large griddle pan and brush with vegetable oil. Keep the heat medium-high and cook as instructed above, brushing the griddle pan with a little oil if it becomes very sticky. Cooking the lamb in this way can get quite smoky so open a window if you can... or risk the fire alarm going off!
