ok - use this thread for whatever you want now

Decided on a leg of lamb and turkey for Christmas. Lookng for a marinade for the leg of lamb. SOmething a tad spicy too..any ideas?

Moroccan spices with a bit of heat then to balance with some sweetness a few apricots. Toast some almonds to go on top at the end. Serve with some cream fresh if you want something to cut through a bit.

Nice one..not sure about the apricots though. Prefer savoury

Where did Bojan play with Borini? In Italy?

Lefty - Another great tip for roasting a leg of lamb...

In your roasting tin make a layer of Boulangère potatoes, it is like dauphinoise potatoes but with stock instead of cream, in this context the latter can be too rich.

You want to layer very thinly sliced potatoes, then thinly sliced onions, season (not too heavy with the salt as it soon adds up and thyme, keep doing this till you've got an inch or so. Now add chicken stock (ideally a fresh one) till just over halfway up the potatoes. Stick you leg of lamb right on top and slow roast.

You should get really fluffy potatoes (King Edwards or Maris Piper) in the middle with a great crisp top. The beauty of this is all the favour from the lamb drips down making it absolutely delicious.

At first that sounded difficult, but that sounds lovely. As its Christmas may as well go the extra yard. Nice one

I think it is a Tom Kerridge recipe if you need to Google it.

Already gooled it:

Thanks Droog, may give it a trial run with a smaller peace of lamb

Henry Kelly? He asked, "Who am I?"
