Title: Sonan's Slow Cooker Balsamic Tomato Lamb.
Post by: Cornish Cream on May 20, 2013, 09:46:42 am

Another slow cooker recipe.

Balsamic Tomato Lamb

1 leg of lamb, well trimmed of any fat
1/2 cup of semi dried tomatoes (97% fat free ones, from the deli)
3-4 cloves of garlic
1-2 tablespoons of balsamic glaze

Whizz up all the stuff except the lamb in the thermy until a rough paste is formed. You could add any fresh herbs like basil or parsley to the mix as well. Cut a few slits all over the lamb and then proceed to give it a good massage with the paste, poking as much paste into the holes as you can. Add about 1/2 cup of water to the bottom of your slow cooker. Add the lamb and all the paste. Cook until the lamb is falling off the bone ~ about 6-8 hours on low. The paste and water will combine with the lamb juices to make a delicious jus. Rest the lamb before carving and eating. Serve on top of some couscous with a spinach salad on the side. It also tastes great the next day with spinach, beetroot and tzatziki in a wrap.

This sounds great. I have a spare leg of lamb in the freezer so might have to give it a try

I used half a leg of lamb to make this recipe.I did slow cook on low for 10 hours to make sure it was tender. It was delicious. ;D

i forgot all about this recipe and used up my leg of lamb last night. It was a great traditional roast though which we haven't had in ages so can't be too dissapointed.
