INSTRUCTIONS

Chop the 5 cloves garlic and 3 Tbs parsley together, make slits in the
meat and stuff with this mixture. Combine the paste ingredients to
make a paste. This is a terrific Moroccan marinade for a leg of lamb.
I think I got it from Goldstein's "The Mediterranean Kitchen" but I'm
not certain. Rub the paste over the lamb. Let it stand 4 hours to
overnight (I prefer overnight). Roast in a 350 degree oven to desired
doneness, basting with the juices. Pour the fat from the pan, add 1
cup boiling water, scrape the pan, cook 2 to 3 minutes, strain into a
sauce boat. When I first made this, the pungency of the mixture scared
me a bit; however, the resulting lamb is mild and mellow. And it fills
the house with a wonderful aroma! Posted to FOODWINE Digest by L
