Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place mint, parsley, pistachios, garlic, and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Pulse to combine. With machine running, add 1/2 cup olive oil through the feed tube; process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Lay lamb flat on a clean work surface. Spread mint mixture evenly over lamb, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Starting at the narrow end, roll lamb into a tight log; tie well with kitchen twine.
- Heat remaining tablespoon olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Place lamb in pan, and cook until browned on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes. Place in oven; roast until meat thermometer registers 140 degrees when inserted in the center, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Transfer lamb to a platter or cutting board, and let rest 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make pan sauce: Pour off fat from skillet. Add stock, and deglaze pan by scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Simmer until liquid is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and serve with stuffed lamb.
LEG OF LAMB WITH PISTACHIO STUFFING AND POTATOES
This Easter centerpiece looks like a fancy roulade, but it's simply a boneless leg of lamb folded over an aromatic pistachio-scallion stuffing and tied nice and neatly with butcher's twine. This cut is less expensive than a rack and more flavorful-and when roasted with potatoes, it's practically a one-pan meal.

Steps:
- Combine scallions, parsley, lemon zest, pistachios, and 1 tablespoon oil in the bowl of a food processor; season with kosher salt and pepper. Pulse to a chunky paste.
- Toast coriander, cumin, and mustard seeds in a small skillet over medium heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a spice grinder or a mortar and pestle; coarsely grind. Stir together ground spices and garlic.
- Pound lamb to an even 1-inch thickness and a roughly 8-by-12-inch rectangle. Generously season both sides with kosher salt and pepper, then rub all but 2 tablespoons spice mixture on outside of lamb (side with fat); turn over and spread scallion mixture evenly over other side, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
- Starting at one long end, fold lamb in half to enclose scallion mixture; secure with twine at approximately 2-inch intervals. Let stand at room temperature at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large saucepan, combine potatoes and enough water to cover by at least 1 inch. Bring to a boil; generously season with kosher salt. Boil until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife but still firm, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain; let cool until no longer steaming, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer potatoes to a roasting pan. Toss with remaining 3 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons spice mixture, and chopped rosemary; season and spread in a single layer. Place lamb on top; scatter rosemary sprigs in pan.
- Roast 20 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350°F and continue cooking until a thermometer inserted in thickest part of lamb near center of roast registers 140°F, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer lamb to a cutting board; loosely cover with foil to keep warm.
- Flip potatoes and return to oven until crisp and golden brown in places, 15 to 20 minutes more. Drizzle potatoes with lemon juice. Slice lamb and serve with potatoes, sprinkled with parsley and flaky salt.

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.

Grill lamb, flipping every 5 minutes for even cooking, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 130 degrees to 135 degrees for medium-rare, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Let stand for 10 minutes. Slice lamb across the grain. Drizzle with reserved marinade.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in lower third. Rub lamb with a generous amount of salt and pepper, then rub with oil. With the tip of a sharp paring knife, cut twenty 1/2-inch-deep slits all over lamb; insert garlic slivers into openings.
- Place lamb on a roasting rack set on a rimmed baking sheet; place in oven. Immediately reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Roast lamb until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part (avoiding bone) registers 125 degrees to 135 degrees for rare, or 135 degrees to 140 degrees for medium, 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 hours. Remove from oven; let rest 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
- Meanwhile, make the mint sauce: In a small saucepan, bring vinegar, sugar, and water to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until liquid is syrupy and reduced to 1 cup, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in mint, and let cool completely.
