Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Get your butcher to bone out your leg of lamb completely and leave it flat, not rolled up and tied. Depending on how many people you are serving, half a leg may well be enough.
1 leg of lamb, boned
A handful of rosemary, chopped
2tbsp fennel seeds, crushed
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
2-4tbsp olive oil
4-6 cloves of garlic, crushed
Put the leg of lamb in a non-reactive tray with all of the marinade ingredients, mix well, rubbing them into the lamb then cover with cling film and leave in the fridge overnight.
Light your barbecue and cook the lamb for about 20-30 minutes, with the lid on > if it has one, turning it every so often and keeping it pink.
To finish, put the lamb on a board and slice it up or cut it into chunks. Serve with the fennel and red onion salad.
