"MMM Delicious tender Lamb roast ! Calls for fresh rosemary, i had to use dried, but it turned out sooo delicious. Next time i will try the fresh. Marinated overnight for wonderful flavour and tenderness! (The basic recipe came from a JMASS of Allrecipes, tweeked to our liking; thanks for a "do again" lamb roast.)"
