Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1.5 lbs Lamb Sirloin
  • 6 fresh rosemary sprigs
  • 15 fresh mint leaves
  • 6 fresh garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black cracked pepper

Instructions
 

  • Remove any silver skin you see. Leave the hard fat in tact. This fat cap will provide flavor for the roast.
  • Now to prepare the rub: slice the mint leaves into ribbons, peel and slice garlic, remove rosemary from its stem, and zest an entire lemon.
  • Put all of these ingredients along with the salt and pepper into a mini blender.
  • Blend the ingredients until the rub looks like a paste.
  • With a brush or with your fingers rub oil all over the Lamb Sirloin.
  • Apply the rub all over the meat.
  • With the Lamb covered in the herbal rub, place the Sirloin into a preheated 400 deg F / 200 deg C. oven. See the Cooking Temperature Guide to gauge how many minutes your Lamb Sirloin should cook for.
