DEDEMED'S ROASTED LEG OF LAMB RECIPE !!! MUST TRY RECIPE

[trwsandford]

Fantastic!

try this. Marinate for 48 hours in a refrigerator in Greek yogurt, before you start this process.

(learned that from a Lebonese caterer... that made a fortune selling lamb)

:)

keep it up you beautiful girl! I love your videos

oh, and by the way the kibbe was fantastic! going to make some more this weekend.

[dedemed]

@trwsandford That is a true tip, my mom marinates everything in yogurt, chicken, beef, lamb, you name it, it helps to tenderize the meat. It is a great tip, but if you have a good high quality piece of meat you don't have to always do that, the fat should help keep it tender and moist.

[dheer1231]

Thanks for letting us know abt the use of cooking it with fat.I generally cook without the fat.Next time I 'll do it with fat.happy new year.

[dedemed]

@dheer1231 you are very welcome, I know that a lot of people try to keep all meat as lean as possible and I agree...well sometimes....and sometimes you just have to get it with some fat to help the flavor develop and to enhance the tenderness :)

[tattooyu]

Looks wonderful. Another great recipe! What I would do differently: 1) Dry the meat really well before cooking to give a better crust on the outside, and 2) cook it longer at a lower temp (275°F or 135°C/Gas Mark 1). Low and slow!

[dedemed]

@tattooyu sounds great! let me know how you like it :) Great tips!

[tauqir92]

it looked delicious even before u put it in the oven..lol

[dedemed]

@tauqir92 thanks, check out my other recipes on my site :)

[LivingSymbiote]

WHAT? no rotisserie??!

[dedemed]

@LivingSymbiote if you have one that's great, make it on the rotisserie but if you don't this way works great too!

[FightStudent]

Dede, I am unable to find this recipe on your website. Would it be possible to direct me to the written versin of this recipe on your website? I was similarly unable to find your recipe for mediterranean mashed potatoes.

Regardless, thank you very much for your effective and easy to follow recipes.

[dedemed]

@FightStudent I sincerely apologize, I am behind on getting the written recipes up on my stie, they will all be up by Friday I promise :)

[Lebnaniyi]

thx for the recipeee...will hopefully try it always wanted to do it in the oven but been scared to not come out well done, yours looks great will try your timings for it and do you by any chance have a recipe for titbi2a? the Lebanese rice with 7 spices and all the nuts

[dedemed]

@Lebnaniyi check out my kabsa video for the rice with the nuts, it is so easy and tastes so good. :)

[chattingwithu]

This looks wonderful! I was wondering if leg of lamb is something you have to ask for in the grocery store because I have never seen it in the meat cases? I think I will definitely give this a try! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

[dedemed]

@chattingwithu just ask your butcher, you may need to order it in advance or try going to an actual meat place/butcher instead of a grocery store. A lot of Italian/Greek/Turkish/Middle Eastern butchers will have leg of lamb :)

[HE3991]

You should make Koshari!

[saif140]

which seasoning u have used?? i missed the name

[dedemed]

@saif140 the seasoning is Dede's Roast Leg of Lamb seasoning, it is available on my site :)

[echonmxco]

[dedemed]

@echonmxco LOL  woooooo whooooooooo :)

[MrBj2020]

what if you dont like rosemarry smell? can you use onions, mint etc?

[dedemed]

@MrBj2020 You don't have to use rosemary, you can us any herb that you like, thyme, basil, mint...they all add wonderful flavor but I prefer to use rosemary with lamb :)

[AlcoholLevel]

Ohhh, I've gotta get you a Detroit 1-8-7 t-shirt :-)

[dedemed]

@AlcoholLevel OMG they make those? I WANT ONE!!!! where do you get it?

[AlcoholLevel]

[jason0998]

I tried doing the kabsa thingy but I couldn't find the 7 seasons in Canada :( ! so i just added black pepper .

[dedemed]

@jason0998 here is the 7 spices recipe:

allspice

black pepper

cinnamon

ground cloves

ground nutmeg

fenugreek

powder ginger

I like to add cumin to this as well so it's almost 8 spices :)

[Fidasaind]

That has to be one of the best cuts of meat available at grocery stores. I like it with lime juice, mint, and garlic sauce and rice. One thing to consider is that on a larger piece of meat, it is a good idea to worry more about internal cooking temperature rather than cooking time. Your stove might not cook the same as Dede's. That and you can cook lamb like beef. Meaning it is fine at med or med rare. Meaning 130-145 internal temp if that is how you like your beef. Me? I aim for 125!

[dedemed]

@Fidasaind Very true, for internal temperature on a piece of meat like this, I like it at 145 degrees, it's perfectly pink. Also make sure that you measure temperature away from the bone or you'll get a wrong read. Having the bone in a piece of meat also helps to keep it moist and juicy. HAPPY COOKING!

[shiroirobin]

Wow you look slimmer, are you on a diet?

[dedemed]

@shiroirobin not a diet, just working out and eating more Mediterranean food and less fast food :)

[kyh7501]
