Leg of Lamb Recipes consist of recipes using the leg of a young sheep between the ages of one month to one year.
Leg of lamb is a whole portion of leg called the saddle. The saddle includes two loins, attached to the hip. The meat is sweet and tender. The younger the lamb, the more tender the meat becomes.
The leg of lamb is typically roasted or boiled, but can also be basted on the grill. Leg of lamb can be served anywhere from rare to well-done, Be careful not to overcook the meat, this will cause the meat to become tough and dry. Leg of lamb and other recipes using lamb are common around Easter.
