Which stores are they please?
Had a quick check of your previous posts to verify your interest in this info! Don't worry, the stores are in Greater London so a long way from you!!
I haven't used any dodgy vouchers so it's all more of an inconvenience than a real worry, I just wish I could scan and go again!0 -

IMHO unless you're one of those who insists on their lamb being pink inside, the best way to roast a leg of lamb is:
1. slice carrots and onions into the bottom of a roasting dish with a lip around the rim and throw in a few sprigs of fresh rosemary (thym also works well)
2. place lamb on top of veggies
3. slice 1 or 2 garlic cloves into very thin shards
4. pierce deep holes all over the lamb with a sharp knife
5. poke a garlic shard and a small sprig of fresh rosemary into each of the holes in the lamb
5. pour a bottle of white wine (or red if preferred - both lovely) over the lamb and crumble a lamb stock cube into the wine and top up with water to approximately halfway up the meat
6. (important step!) get a large piece of foil and tuck it under the lip of the roasting tin all the way around, ensuring that it is airtight. try to keep the foil from touching the lamb to allow heat to circulate properly.
7. Turn the oven on max to preheat and put the roasting tin on high on the hob
8. listen for the liquid to start boiling.
9. Allow to boil for approx 10 mins to get plenty of hot air circulating under the foil
10. put the roasting tin in the oven on high for 10 mins
11. turn the oven down to low for around 2 hours and leave to cook down into a very juicy and tender lamb that will slide off the bone - byooooooootiful! (be careful when removing the foil as steam will gush out!!!!!!). DO NOT TAKE A SNEAKY PEAK UNDER THE FOIL DURING COOKING AS YOU WILL RUIN IT!
12. Remove lamb and veggies from the tin and allow to rest on a plate while you make the gravy
13. put the roasting tin back on the hob on high
14. when it comes back to bubbling, sprinkle about a tablespoon of cornflour into the liquid and stir in with a wooden spoon, mashing any flour lumps agains the tin. I find blitzing it with a hand blender to get rid of lumps gives a quicker, better and smoother result. You should now have a lovely rich thickened gravy - add more cornflour if it's not thick enough.
15. keep stiring for a few minutes and let the liquid boil to cook the cornflour out (then you wont taste it)
16. Serve with spuds and veggies (and cheap expensive wine)
17. enjoy
18. revel in the praise that yor fellow diners heap upon you!!!!
hope it all goes well - it always has for me - a real crowd pleaser.

Sorry to post your whole post but it sounds yum. I do have a question or two, if you don't use wine - does that make much difference? And if you are filling it up half way with liquid,does it still roast or sort of half roast/half stew??
Just wondering about kids and wine when coooking.0 -
