I love making this dish with family at Easter and it’s the one thing we make every year without exception. The lamb is just so tender and Jersey Royals, just in season, are the perfect accompaniment. Jersey Royals are a young potato full of nutty flavour with a great texture when cooked just right — don’t overcook them! Don’t forget to take your leg of lamb out of the fridge and let it get to room temperature before stuffing, which will ensure an even cook. Expect this recipe to take about an hour and a half or so, before the time spent resting the meat. Good luck and happy Easter.
