Rub lamb well with lemon juice and spread on remaining seasoning. With a spatula, cover lamb with 1/2-inch coating of plain yogurt; refrigerate overnight. Two hours before roasting set lamb out at room temperature. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place lamb on a rack in a roasting pan and roast for 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Every half hour, baste with remaining yogurt marinade. Serves 10 to 12.
