Leg of Lamb...finally!
Remember I wanted to cook a leg of lamb for my mom? The "leg" (opportunity) had not present itself until last Sunday. Mr. A wanted to bake bread and I wanted to try the Corn Muffin receipt, so we decided to go food shopping together after having lunch on Sunday.
I saw this gorgeous leg of lamb, chilled, in the fridge and couldn't resist and bought it. Right after finish baking the muffins, "worked" on the leg.
Prep work: Stuff a few branches of rosemary into the leg, then rub sea salt and other spice and some vodka all over it. Should have marinate it overnight, but you know I cannot wait to cook it!

Roast it in the oven at 180F for about 2.5hours. The leg is as long as my small oven. I was afraid it couldn't fit in. Whew...

Took a 10min taxi ride to my parent's city-home...

The center of the leg is a bit pink. That makes the meat a perfect medium rare. Yummy! The 4 of us could only finish 1/3 of it. So yummy, even my mom said it's nice. (You have to know my mom hardly ever give me any compliments! :"))
