GREEK BUTTERFLIED LAMB LEG
Recipe video above. This is a terrific, bold Greek marinade for lamb that both tenderises and infuses it with garlicky, herby, lemon flavours. Butterflied lamb leg is a fantastic way to enjoy lamb because the flattened shape means it can be cooked relatively quickly compared to roasting a whole leg. In fact, I think that butterflied lamb leg is one of the best cuts of lamb for the BBQ!

Steps:
- Combine marinade ingredients, but don't add any salt as it draws the juices out of the meat and will toughen it. Make slashes about 2.5cm (1in) deep through the fleshy side of the lamb, but don't go right through the skin. Put the lamb skin-side down in a non-metallic dish, pour over the marinade and rub in well. Do this the day before to allow the flavours to penetrate the meat. Cover and chill.
- When you're ready to cook the lamb, preheat oven to 200 C, 180 C fan oven, 400 F, gas 6. Also have a small barbecue fire ready - this is optional, but gives the lamb a better flavour and texture and is perfect to finish it off before serving.
- Place lamb in a roasting tin and season both sides well. Cook in the oven for 45 minutes if you like your lamb blushing pink, or 1 hour if you prefer it more well done. Remove lamb from the oven and, if you're not barbecuing it, allow to rest for 10 minutes. Otherwise, remove from the tin and place on the hot barbie and grill each side for about 10 minutes until nicely charred and crispy. Pour all juices from the tin into a small saucepan and skim off any fat. Keep hot while you slice the lamb and serve the sauce separately.

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).

- Mix the garlic, chilli, rosemary, thyme, fennel seeds, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, pepper and olive oil in a shallow, non-metallic dish large enough to hold the lamb. Add the lamb, turn to coat well in the marinade, then cover and leave in the fridge for up to 24 hours, turning now and then.
- For the slow-roasted tomatoes, heat the oven to its highest setting. Cut the tomatoes in half and lay them cut-face up in a lightly oiled, shallow roasting tin. Sprinkle each tomato with sea salt flakes and ground black pepper, then roast in the oven for 15 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 150°C/130°C fan/gas 2 and roast for 1¼-1½ hours more (this depends on the size of your tomatoes) until shrivelled and lightly browned but still juicy in the centre. Remove and set aside.
- When you’re ready to cook the lamb, heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. For the rosemary salt, put the chopped rosemary into a mortar and bruise it with the pestle. Stir in the sea salt flakes and set aside.
- Lift the lamb out of the marinade and shake off the excess. Season the meat lightly with a little rosemary salt and some pepper. Heat a griddle pan over a high heat until smoking hot. Add the lamb and sear over a medium-high heat for 5 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Transfer the meat to a roasting tin and roast for 20-25 minutes, depending on how rare you like your meat and how thinly it has been butterflied, or until it registers 55-60°C at its thickest part on a digital probe thermometer.
