Steps:
- Pulse the garlic, ginger, 1 tablespoon olive oil and the paprika in a food processor to make a paste. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic-ginger paste, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until the paste begins to fry slightly, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; let cool.
- Make about sixteen 1-inch-deep slits all over the leg of lamb with a paring knife. Stuff the chopped mint and some of the garlic-ginger paste into the slits. Rub the remaining paste all over the outside of the lamb. Wrap the lamb in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Bring the lamb to room temperature 30 minutes before roasting. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Unwrap the lamb, season with salt and pepper and place on a rack in a roasting pan. Pour 1 cup chicken broth into the pan. Transfer to the oven and roast until the lamb starts browning, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the remaining 2 cups chicken broth, the vinegar and sugar in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil; remove from the heat and set aside.
- Remove the lamb from the oven; baste with the broth mixture. Continue roasting, basting every 30 minutes, until the lamb is golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 130 degrees F, about 1 1/2 more hours. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 20 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, spoon off any excess fat from the pan juices; add the pan juices to the remaining broth. Heat the broth mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced by about one-third, about 5 to 7 minutes. Top the lamb with mint and serve with the broth mixture.

GARLIC AND ROSEMARY LAMB ROAST
This was an absolute stand-out at our Xmas dinner. The difference here is that there is a stock bath that the roast sits above. This keeps the meat wonderfully moist and the aromas nicely permeate the flesh. The cooking time will produce quite a rare meat (how we like it) so you may prefer to cook for longer. From my favourite Greek & Middle Eastern book. (Australian measurements used.)

GLAZED ROAST LAMB
My grandmother always makes it for Passover seder. I imagine it would work very well for Easter as well. She clipped the recipe out of some newspaper a decade ago or so. You can used dried herbs if you use 1/3 the amounts of herbs, but it isn't as good.

ROAST LEG OF LAMB WITH LEMON, GARLIC, AND ROSEMARY
The longer the lamb marinates in the seasoning paste, the better flavor you'll have. Anywhere from 1 to 24 hours will work, but overnight is best. Slice the leftovers for pita stuffed sandwiches topped with tabbouleh.From the book "Mad Hungry," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books).

Steps:
- Place the chopped lemon, rosemary, garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil in a food processor. A blender can also be used, if done in batches. If you have neither, finely chop all ingredients together.
- Open up the lamb and lay it flat. Spread and massage the lemon paste evenly over the inside and outside of the lamb. Place in a baking dish and cover, or in a large resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate overnight to marinate, turning occasionally.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Remove the meat from the refrigerator 30 to 60 minutes before cooking. Place the lamb on a rack in a foil-lined roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet. Place the meat in the oven and after 5 minutes, reduce the temperature to 425 degrees. Roast for 45 minutes, or until medium rare, 140 degrees on an instant read thermometer. Allow the meat to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving and serving.
Tips:
- Choosing the right cut of lamb: For this recipe, a leg of lamb is recommended due to its tender and flavorful meat. Look for a leg that is evenly marbled and has a good layer of fat, as this will help keep the meat moist during roasting.
- Preparing the lamb: Before roasting, trim off any excess fat from the leg of lamb. Using a sharp knife, score the surface of the meat in a criss-cross pattern to help the marinade penetrate and the meat cook evenly.
- Creating the marinade: The marinade for this recipe is a delightful blend of herbs, spices, and citrus flavors. Make sure to use fresh rosemary, mint, and ginger for the best results. The marinade should be applied to the lamb at least 30 minutes before roasting, or even better, overnight.
- Roasting the lamb: When roasting the lamb, it's important to use a roasting pan that is large enough to accommodate the meat comfortably. Place the lamb on a roasting rack inside the pan, this will allow the air to circulate around the meat and ensure even cooking. Roast the lamb at a high temperature initially to sear the meat and then reduce the temperature to allow it to cook through gently.
- Making the glaze: While the lamb is roasting, prepare the rosemary-mint-ginger glaze. This glaze is a delicious combination of sweet and savory flavors that perfectly complements the lamb. Make sure to brush the glaze on the lamb during the last 30 minutes of roasting to give it a beautiful caramelized crust.
- Resting the lamb: Once the lamb is cooked, it's important to let it rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
This Roast Lamb with Rosemary-Mint-Ginger Glaze is a culinary masterpiece that combines tender and flavorful lamb with a vibrant and aromatic glaze. By following the tips and steps outlined in this recipe, you can create a dish that will impress your family and friends.
