First you have to kill a fake lamb and then you cook it
A leg of lamb is larger that a chop. Therefore it requires more time for the heat to penetrate the extra layers of the leg.
90 minutes
Cooking a 2.4kg leg of lamb should take an hour under medium heat. Slow cooking keeps the leg juicy and soft.
The leg has greater mas than the lamp chop. More time is needed for the larger mass body of the lamp for the heat to pentrate the underparts of the leg than the chop
Cooking a leg of lamb takes longer than cooking lamb chops primarily due to the size and density of the meat. A leg of lamb is a larger cut, requiring more time for heat to penetrate evenly throughout the thick muscle, ensuring it cooks thoroughly. In contrast, lamb chops are smaller and thinner, allowing them to cook more quickly and evenly. Additionally, the cooking method and desired doneness can also affect the overall cooking time for each cut.
There are many ways which you can use to cook the leg of a lamb such as grilling, oven roasting, boneless leg lamb roast etc. Here's one of the ways: 1. Oven Roasting Method : Start by preheating the oven to around 475 degrees F. Apply the desired seasonings on the lamb. Next, put the lamb in a nice pan and start cooking. Cook the first 15 minutes at 475 degrees F. After 15 minutes, reduce the heat to 350 degrees F. Continue to cook and let it cook for 20 minutes per pound. You can use a meat thermometer for more exact reading. If you want the lamb to be medium rare, you can stop cooking when it states 145 degrees F. After cooking leg of lamb, allow it to rest for 15 minutes beneath a foil. Hope this helps.
Preheat oven to 375. Open oven door. Place leg of lamb and beef eye in oven. Cook for 2 hours. Let rest.
