List of Ingredients

half leg of lamb
1 bulb garlic
1 cup water



Recipe

Take a half-leg of lamb (small enough to fit into your crockpot) and a garlic bulb. Peel and thickly sliver 8-12 cloves of garlic (I used a whole bulb). Use a sharp paring knife to make slits about an inch or so apart all over the leg of lamb and stuff garlic slivers into the slits, then put the lamb into the crockpot with a little water (maybe 1/3 c.).

You could sear the lamb in a pan first to brown it, but since I was starting this very late at night I didn't bother and it was fine. Cook 5-6 hours on auto-shift for fairly well-done lamb. Remove from crockpot, carve and serve. Save broth, bones and leftovers for another dish (see following recipe). I suppose you could also add chunks of potatoes, carrots, etc to cook with the leg of lamb.
