   Unroll lamb leg exposing the pocket created by removing the bone. Rub the inside of the lamb leg with half of the garlic paste, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add stuffing evenly throughout the cavity, and fold the leg over, hopefully encompassing all of the stuffing... do not over stuff the leg, if there is extra, just eat it later. Tie lamb leg with kitchen string, you might need a friend to help so that lamb is in a tight bundle around the sutffing... it should look like a football. Rub the remaining garlic paste on the exterior of the football, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

   Combine ingredients for yogurt and generiously coat the lamb leg. It might be better to do this in a food storage bag if it will fit. Allow the lamb to sit for 20 minutes in the refridgerator while covered in yogurt.

7. 7

   In a 2 quart sauce pan, at medium heat, fry onion in 2 tbsn olive oil. Once onion is translucent add lamb bones and cover pot. After 10 minutes reduce the pan heat to low, and add red wine, herbs, and salt and pepper to taste. After 15 minutes, run stock through a strainer, retain liquid.

8. 8

   reduce this liquid by half.

9. 9

   To grill the lamb, heat the grill to a medium temperature, and reduce the flame to medium low. Lamb does not take very long to cook, so 8-10 minutes on all 4 sides with the lid closed will probably yield a medium rare leg (which is perfect)

    To serve, remove kitchen ties, and slice the lamb in one inch lengths cross-sectionally. Drizzle with reduction, and enjoy.
