Method
1 Pre heat the oven to 190°C
Mix together all the rub ingredients. Score the lamb fat with a sharp knife into a diamond pattern and rub thoroughly with the spice mix, season with salt and pepper and roast for 30mins/450g, basting a couple of times during cooking time.
2 Having calculated the roasting time for your lamb , add the sweet root vegetables, cut into large wedges, around the meat for the final 40 minutes of roasting time. Rest the lamb for 10-15 minutes before carving and during that time add a small glass of white wine and some stock to the meat juices and scrape together, reducing over heat to make a sauce.
