Raan lamb leg (Indian)

[rascal]

Having family over for dinner tomorrow, along with Indian theme I'm trying roast raan leg of lamb, basically trim the leg make cuts and rub with spices, then put into an ovenbag and massage with yoghurt and crushed almonds and brown sugar. It's marinading overnight. Looking forward to this as I've never had it before.

I first had raan in Delhi in the early 90s and loved it (served without cutlery - it should be pulled from the bone with your fingers). I've twice tried to cook it myself since with minimal success.

I wish you luck and hope it turns out as you hope.

It was falling off the bone,my kids raved about the flavour. It melted in the mouth. A bit of work to make but worth it,I served with rice and a vegetable korma.

With starving people around no pics, besides my kids give me a hard time about taking pics of food. The minor adjustments I made to the samosas were a big hit. 10/10 from everyone. So good with tamarind chutney. And rhaita.

It didn't look particularly good, the brown sugar and yoghurt turned it quite dark. But once cut up it was amazing.
