Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, as this is the temperature needed to cook leg of lamb. There are many different types of marinades you can use and different methods for using them. Depending on the specified marinade, it can be soaked in by the meat being left in the marinade for a period of time. It is said that some people soak it in milk, or use thinned down yogurt to take away its naturally strong flavour. Making this type of marinade you would thin down milk or yogurt with water or a little white wine and add a few sprigs of rosemary. The marinade should cover the whole leg.

Now it is ready to cook, so place the leg of lamb in an oven-safe dish covered with aluminum foil for 30 to 45 minutes. Take it out and take off the aluminum foil, and then place it in the oven again for a further 30 to 45 minutes or until done.

Please note, a leg of lamb on the bone will take longer to cook than one that has been de-boned.

Season lamb chops with salt and pepper. Heat up a pan, preferably cast iron, to around med/high heat, then let the lamb chop sear on either side until the inside is as rare or well done as you would like.

Ideally any meat is cooked according to internal temperature via a thermometer. Or a basic rule of thumb is until the juices run clear. Depending on the cut of meat and cooking method temperatures and cooking times will vary, so a little research helps.
