Servings: persons

1 red onion peeled and finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 3/4 ounces dried apricots roughly chopped
1 apple small, cored and grated
2 3/4 ounces breadcrumbs fresh white
herbs Handful mixed, chopped
1 egg yolk medium
1 leg of lamb boned, about 2 1/4 lbs
4 red apples small
4 sprigs rosemary
4 tablespoons apricot jam
thyme to garnish
flat leaf parsley to garnish

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Saute the onion in 1 tbsp oil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft. Remove from the heat. Add the apricots, grated apple, breadcrumbs and herbs; season well. Add egg yolk and mix to bind.
2
Push the mixture into the cavity in the lamb where the bone has been removed. Tie with string to secure, if necessary. Weigh the lamb to calculate the cooking time (25 mins/lb plus 20 mins).
3
Place lamb in a roasting pan. Rub with a little salt and remaining oil. Roast for calculated time less 45 minutes, basting occasionally. Pierce the apples with the rosemary sprigs and add to the pan; spoon the jam over the lamb and apples. Return to the oven for the final 45 minutes.
4
Transfer lamb and apples to serving dish; cover and leave to rest for 10 minutes. Make gravy with meat juices. Garnish lamb with herbs and serve.
