Method
Step 1 of 7
Preheat oven to 200ºC (180ºC fan-forced). Score the lamb leg three or four times in lines.
Step 2 of 7
Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat and cook the lamb for 3-4 minutes, turning often, until browned all over. Insert the rosemary sprigs into the scores.
Step 3 of 7
Reserve 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan and place into a large bowl with the potatoes, onion and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Place in a large baking dish and pour over the stock.
Step 4 of 7
Place the lamb on top of potatoes and brush lamb with half the balsamic vinegar. Cover with baking paper and foil and roast for 1 hour.
Step 5 of 7
Remove the foil and brush lamb with remaining balsamic. Roast for a further 40-50 minutes for medium, or until lamb is golden. Remove the lamb and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes.
Step 6 of 7
Increase oven temperature to 240ºC (220ºC fan-forced), top the potatoes with the tomatoes and return to the oven for 15 minutes or until potatoes are golden and crisp.
Step 7 of 7
Thinly slice the lamb and place on top of the potatoes and tomatoes to serve.
