What is National Roast Leg Of Lamb Day?
National Roast Leg of Lamb Day is a holiday that takes place in May 7th. Each year on May 7th, a menu suggestion worthy of a celebration is made. The leg of lamb is a mild and tender cut of meat that when roasted, is a unique and delectable dish to many. A typical dish involves coating the leg of lamb with butter, rosemary sprigs pushed inside incisions cut in the leg, and rosemary leaves sprinkled on top. The lamb is then roasted to 360 degrees for two hours.
Lamb is a lean red meat with a healthy fat content. Of course, it's going to be delivered with the protein at 25 grams per 3 ounce serving. But it also contains potassium and vitamin B-12. The iron, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids are all good reasons to eat lamb.
Roasted or grilled vegetables pair well with roast leg of lamb. Consider asparagus, roast cauliflower, or tomatoes. A coles law calls for mixing up a spring salad or for a touch of acid. Rice complements lamb, as do mashed or baked potatoes. Make your new gravy or herb sauce before adding your favorite gravy or herb sauce. Serve the dish with a chocolate souffle or lemon tarts to end the meal.
