BONELESS LEG OF LAMB WITH MINT, PINE NUT & CURRANT STUFFING
In spring, lamb is one of my favorite foods. Mint always works well with lamb and this simple stuffing really brings out the flavour. The roast goes into the oven seam side up in order to encourage cruncy bits of stuffing to form along the seam as the lamb roast. The herb stuffing infuses the meat with flavour and helps keep it moist. Prep time does not reflect letting the currants marinate in the port overnight.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, soak the currants in enough Port to cover for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
- When ready to roast the lamb, drain the currants; discard the Port.
- Position a rack in the lower middle of the oven and heat the oven to 400*F.
- In a large bowl, mic the bread crumbs, mint, parsley, olive oil, pine nuts, and currants. Season to taste with salt and pepper, add the beaten eggs and mix well.
- Until the lamb and unroll it. Lay the meat flat and pat dry with paper towels. Trim off any excess fat and, if necessary, butterfly portions of the lamb to make it roughly rectangular and evenly thick. Sprinkle the inside of the lamb with salt and pepper and pat the stuffing evenly over the meat.
- Roll the lamb tightly, from one short end to the other, and tie the roast snugly at 1 inch intervals with kitchen twine.
- Sprinkle the outside of the lamb with more salt and pepper and then set it, seam side up on a rack in a small roasting pan. Gather any stuffing that has escaped and poke it back in at the ends of the lamb roll. Roast until an instant read thermometer inserted into a thick part of the roast reads 125*F to 130*F for medium rare (60 to 70 minuttes). Let rest for 15 minutes, then carve into medium thin slices.

Steps:
- Lay the lamb, skin-side down, on a board - if the joint you bought is tied up, then snip the strings and unroll it. Cut several pieces of string long enough to tie around the lamb, then slide them under the joint so they're regularly spaced out. Mix the stuffing ingredients together, and season well. Spread the stuffing out along the middle of the lamb, then fold the meat over to form a roll. Tie the string so the roll stays together, but don't make it too tight or it will cut into the meat. Tie some string lengthways too, if necessary.
- Heat oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3. Season the lamb evenly all over. Heat a little oil in a large frying pan, then brown the lamb all over. Start with the side where the seam meets, as this will stop the lamb breaking up when you carve it.
- Tip the veg, garlic and rosemary into a roasting tin and put the lamb on top, seam-side down. Cook the lamb until the core temperature reaches 60C on a meat thermometer - this should take around 1 hr for a 2kg leg. As you rest the lamb, the temperature will continue to rise so don't overcook it.
- Lift the lamb out of the tin and, keeping it warm, rest for up to an hour. Put the roasting tin on the hob. Add the stock, bring to a simmer, then tip the lot into a saucepan, scraping up any bits. Add 500ml water and then simmer again until reduced by half. Pour through a fine sieve and serve with the lamb.

Steps:
- Remove plastic netting or twine from around the leg of lamb, if any, and open up the roast on a cutting board. Place the boned side of the roast up. With a sharp paring knife, cut away any excess fatty areas. Use a sharp knife to cut 1/2-inch deep slits in the meat about 2 inches apart, to help the meat lie flat. Cover the meat with a sturdy piece of plastic wrap or a cut-apart food storage bag, and pound the meat with a mallet or the edge of a small plate until the roast is about 3/4 inch thick everywhere, and 10 to 14 inches square.
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Sprinkle the upper side of the meat with salt and pepper, and then spread spinach leaves over the top of the roast to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Break up the goat cheese and sprinkle it evenly over the spinach, then sprinkle the pine nuts over the cheese.
- Roll the roast up into a tight cylinder, and tie the roast together with kitchen twine at 2 inch intervals. It's okay if a little stuffing protrudes from the sides of the roast.
- In a flat dish, mix together the flour, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of pepper, the thyme, and the fennel seeds, and press the tied roast firmly into the flour mixture to coat all sides.
- Heat the sesame oil in a heavy oven-proof or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers, and sear all sides of the roast, including the ends, to a golden brown color. Lay the roast into the skillet, place into the preheated oven, and roast to your desired degree of doneness, or an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (65 degrees C) for medium, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
