Rolled lamb breast with herbs

Lamb breast is the cheapest cut on the animal and the fattest, which on this way of eating is the wrong reason to avoid it and the right reason to buy it.

Method

6 steps · 210 minutes

  1. Ask the butcher to bone it, or do it yourself with a small sharp knife along the ribs. It is easier than it looks and the bones make stock.
  2. Salt the inside heavily and leave it uncovered in the fridge overnight if you can. This is what dries the skin enough to crisp.
  3. Chop the herbs with the garlic and lemon zest and spread that across the inside face.
  4. Roll it along the long edge and tie it at 1 1/4 inch intervals. Loose ties let the fat run out; tight ones squeeze the herbs out instead.
  5. Three hours at 300F on a rack, then 15 minutes at 425F to blister the outside.
  6. Rest it 20 minutes before slicing, which is longer than feels necessary and is not.
