Servings4
1 lamb leg
1 rosemary stalk
5 potatoes, medium-sized, peeled and quartered
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp kosher salt
½ cup vinegar
1¼ cups water, divided
2 tbsp gelatin powder
½ cup mint leaves, chopped
1 cup fresh mint leaves
3 cups refined sugar

mint jelly

🥗Healthier: homemade mint sauce

💰Cheaper: apple jelly

Homemade mint sauce is fresher and lower in sugar.

1

Preheat your oven to 356 degrees F.

2

Brush the lamb with olive oil and sprinkle rosemary and salt all over it.

3

Place the potato on a baking sheet wrapped in foil.

4

Next, place the seasoned lamb leg on a trivet in a baking tray or directly onto the oven rack for a bigger size of lamb leg, along with the potatoes. Bake it in the oven for roughly 2 to 3 hours.

5

Remove the roasted leg from the oven, then wrap it in aluminum foil for 30 minutes to retain the heat before carving it and then serving.

6

Combine the fresh mint leaves, sugar, vinegar, and a cup of water in a saucepan.

7

Bring the saucepan to a boil and simmer its contents for 10 minutes before straining them.

8

Now, take the gelatin and dissolve it in ¼ cup of water.

9

Add the dissolved gelatin to the strained mixture and mix in the chopped mint leaves. Allow the jelly to cool for it to naturally thicken.

10

Serve the room-temperature or chilled jelly alongside the roasted lamb leg. Enjoy!
