Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Take your lamb leg joint[s] out of the fridge, open the packet and let it adjust to room temperature
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/gas 7 and boil a full kettle
Peel your potatoes and chop into quarters
Add the potatoes to a pot with plenty of boiled water with a pinch of salt, bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for 10-15 min or until fork-tender

While the potatoes are cooking, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over medium-high heat
Remove the string from your lamb leg joint[s], pat dry with kitchen paper and season with salt
Once hot, add the seasoned lamb to the pan and cook for 3-4 min or until browned on all sides
Once browned, transfer to a baking tray and set the pan aside for later

Once the potatoes are done, drain and leave them to steam dry
Tip: For extra crispy potatoes, shake them around in a colander to fluff up the edges a little before roasting
Add the drained potatoes to a baking tray with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil and season with salt
Put the tray in the oven for 35-40 min, turning halfway through, or until crispy

Dissolve your beef stock mix in 200ml [260ml] [340ml] boiled water
Return the reserved pan to a medium heat, add 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] flour and cook for 1 min, stirring frequently, or until a sandy paste forms
Gradually mix in the beef stock, your Henderson's Relish and redcurrant jelly and cook for 8-10 min or until a thick gravy remains – this is your redcurrant jus

Remove the redcurrant jus the heat and reheat before serving
Put the tray in the oven for 8-9 min for rare, 10-12 min for medium-rare and 12-14 min for medium
Once the lamb is cooked, transfer it to a clean chopping board to rest for 3 min before slicing – this is your roast lamb
Reserve the tray

Wash your leek[s] carefully to remove any grit from between the leaves, then top, tail and slice finely
Heat a pot over a medium-low heat with a small knob of butter
Once melted, add the sliced leek with a pinch of salt and cook for 8-10 min or until softened
Once softened, add your soft cheese and a splash of water and cook for 6-8 min further – these are your creamed leeks

Add your Tenderstem broccoli to the reserved tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and give everything a good mix up
Put the tray in the oven and cook for 10-12 min or until tender
Meanwhile, warm the creamed leeks and redcurrant jus through over a low heat

Pour any of the resting juices into the redcurrant jus
Slice the roast lamb and serve over the creamed leeks with the roasted potatoes and Tenderstem broccoli to the side
Pour the redcurrant jus over everything
Enjoy!
