This is a great roast lamb recipe. If you worry about the amount of garlic, be assured this recipe is mild. My only problem was trying to convert Centigrade, or Celsius to Fahrenheit. I finally remembered that you multiply by 9/5 and add 32 to convert 200 degrees, C to 392 degrees, F.<br/><br/>I had to decide whether to stuff the rosemary sprigs in from the stem or the leaves. I used a Popsicle stick and stuffed the sprigs in, leaf first.<br/><br/>I served the lamb and potatoes with steamed potatoes and included some of my homemade jalapeno jelly as an aspic.

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
