All Day Lamb

1. 1

   Marinate the leg of lamb overnight in the bottle of red wine.

2. 2

   Just before work make a bag large enough to accommodate a leg of lamb with aluminium foil.

3. 3

   Place the leg of lamb, the red wine, butter and several sprigs of fresh thyme in the bag.

4. 4

   Seal the bag and place in a oven and bake at 250F/120C for 8 hours (or more).

5. 5

   As this is a rich dish, serve with some relatively plain vegetable side dish and simple mashed potatoes (thyme-mashed potatoes goes well with this).

6. 6

   When cooked the meat will fall off the bone as it is so tender.

7. 7

   To create your sauce just remove the red wine-butter mixture from the foil and reduce to 1/4 of its size to form a thick jus.
