Roast Lamb

Easter is the perfect time to gather all the family around the table for a traditional roast dinner, and this lamb dish is sure to impress. Tender, juicy, and infused with the fresh flavours of lemon and rosemary, its a centerpiece fit for the occasion.

Ingredients

  • 1.3kg boneless lamb leg or shoulder
  • 3 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method

1. Preheat the Omnichef oven. Select Traditional Cooking – MultiTech Mode. Set to:

  • 240°C (Fan Assist)
  • Microwave: 300W
  • ​​​​​​​Steam: 40%
  • ​​​​​​​Cooking time: 30 minutes

2. Prepare the lamb - score the lamb with a sharp knife and insert slivers of garlic into the cuts. Rub all over with olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped rosemary, salt, and pepper. Let it rest at room temperature while the oven heats.
3. Roast using MultiTech - Place the lamb directly in a microwave-safe dish. Roast for 30 minutes using the programmed settings. The combination of fan heat, gentle steam, and microwave power ensures a tender, evenly cooked joint with a beautifully crisp crust.
4. Rest before carving - remove the lamb from the oven, cover loosely with foil, and allow it to rest for 10–15 minutes. This helps retain the juices.
​​​​​​​5. Slice and serve with seasonal spring vegetables, roast potatoes, or a mint yoghurt dressing.
