6 servings
Servings4
1 leg of lamb (about 3 lbs)
1 bunch of mint
1 bunch of parsley
2 oz ginger, peeled
10 garlic cloves
½ cup vegetable oil
salt & pepper to taste
zest of 2 lemons
5 shallots
2 bunches of cherry tomatoes on the vine
2 cups water or veggie broth
1 cup polenta
salt, pepper & nutmeg to taste
⅓ cup grated Parmesan
butter for frying
1

For the lamb, combine the ingredients for the marinade, then cover the leg of lamb with it and let it marinate for at least 2 hours.

2

Fry the marinated leg of lamb, then add the cherry tomatoes on the vine to the pan and roast at 275°F for 2 hours, until the internal temperature of the lamb reaches 150°F.

3

For the polenta, bring the water to a boil, add in the polenta, and let it cook for about 2 minutes. Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, then remove the pan from the heat, put the lid on, and let it sit for 5 minutes.

4

Stir in the grated Parmesan, then pour the polenta onto a baking tray and even out its surface. Let the polenta cool for another 15 minutes, then cut it out into fun shapes using Easter cookie cutters.

5

Fry the polenta cut-outs in butter on both sides until golden brown.
