Lamb in foil in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 day 18 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake lamb in foil? For the marinade, dilute salt and sugar in water so that the water is salty with a slight sweetness. Place the meat in water (you can first measure clean water - how much you need to cover the meat in your vessel). Add lemon juice and leftover juice to the water. Leave the meat to marinate in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.

2. STEP 2

   

   Get all the other ingredients and a mortar and pestle ready (if you don't have it, that's okay).

3. STEP 3

   

   Place all the ingredients for the crust in a mortar.

4. STEP 4

   

   Grind everything well. If you don't have a mortar, use already ground spices.

5. STEP 5

   

   Peel and coarsely chop the carrots.

6. STEP 6

   

   Peel and coarsely chop the onion.

7. STEP 7

   

   Without peeling, cut the head of garlic in half crosswise. Place onions, carrots and garlic in a large baking tray. If desired, you can line it with foil.

8. STEP 8

   

   In a bowl, combine balsamic sauce, soy sauce and wine vinegar for the dressing.

9. STEP 9

   

   Remove the zest from the orange and add it to the sauce along with the chili.

10. STEP 10

    

    Squeeze the orange juice there. Coarsely chop the remaining orange and add to the vegetables.

11. STEP 11

    

    Mix everything well.

12. STEP 12

    

    Add wine.

13. STEP 13

    

    Pour the sauce into the pan.

14. STEP 14

    

    Place the meat and lemons from the marinade on a baking sheet on top of the vegetables.

15. STEP 15

    

    Rub the leg of lamb well with the spice mixture from the mortar.

16. STEP 16

    

    Wrap the baking sheet with foil and place it in the oven. Cook for 3 hours at 170-180 degrees. Then test for readiness - if, when pierced at the joint, clear juice flows to the full depth, it means it’s ready. Before slicing, let the meat sit for 15 minutes so that the juices disperse throughout all the fibers.
