Lamb is delicious when roasted and well rested. Served simply on a large platter, arranged with seasonal salad and dressed with the gathered juices and a touch of vinaigrette, lamb is irresistible.

Method
To Slow Roast Lamb
1
Preheat the oven to 160 °C.
2
Use a sharp cook’s knife to make 6-9 small but deep cuts in the lamb, through to the bone.
3
Sit in a shallow-sided baking dish.
4
Mix the olive paste, garlic and rosemary together and spoon or press small spoonfuls into each cut, spreading the rest over the lamb.
5
Cover loosely with foil.
6
Roast in the preheated oven for 2½-3 hours (or until the meat begins to fall from the bone), removing the foil in the last 30 minutes of cooking time.
7
Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 20 minutes, reserving the juices.
8
Carve the lamb into chunky pieces, place on a serving plate with your own choice of salad ingredients and drizzle over the reserved juices. Sprinkle with olives and pine nuts.
