Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F/170°C/Gas mark 4.
- Remove string from leg of lamb and open out the joint, skin side down.
- Slash any thick parts of meat so the joint lays flat to the board.
- Evenly sprinkle the parsley, garlic and Pancetta over the surface, and then sprinkle generously with the olive oil.
- Season well with salt and pepper.
- Roll the joint back up and tie securely with kitchen string.
- Place the joint into a large roasting tin and cook for 1 hour (rare) 1 hour 15 mins for medium.
- Tightly wrap the joint in foil and leave to rest for 10 minutes
- Meanwhile, carefully pour off any fat from the roasting tin and place it on a medium heat on top of the stove.
- Pour in the wine carefully scraping up all the juices stuck on the bottom and reduce to a sticky glaze.
- Add the stock, stir well and reduce by half.
- Strain through a fine sieve into a small saucepan and add the butter and shake the pan gently until all the butter is absorbed.
- Check and adjust the seasoning.
- Slice the lamb and serve immediately on a bed of wilted spring greens, surrounded by the sauce.
