INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lay the butterflied leg of lamb flat on  a
work surface, fat-side down. Pound briefly to flatten. Combine the
bread crumbs, parsley, garlic, feta cheese, olives, rosemary, olive
oil and lemon juice in a bowl and blend well to make a coarse  stuffing
for the lamb. Spread the stuffing evenly along the center of  the
inside of the leg of lamb. Fold the lamb toward the center, one  side
then the other, to enclose the stuffing and form a roll. Tie the  roll
in several places with butcher's twine so that it does not open  during
cooking.  Season the outside of the lamb with the salt and pepper and
place,  seam-side down in a roasting pan. Place in the oven and roast
45  minutes, then add the whole baby eggplants to the pan. Continue
roasting the lamb and eggplants another 35 to 40 minutes for medium
rare.  Remove the lamb and eggplants from the oven and allow the roast
to  cool 20 minutes before slicing. Split the eggplants down the middle
to serve. They should be eaten by scooping out the creamy eggplant
interior, leaving the shells behind.  Converted by MC_Buster.  Recipe
