Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  2. Rub the lamb leg with 30 ml olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Place the lamb in a roasting pan and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the salad greens, sliced radishes, and roasted asparagus.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice and crumbled feta cheese to create a dressing.
  7. Slice the rested lamb and arrange it on top of the salad. Drizzle with the feta dressing and garnish with chopped mint.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy your seasonal roasted lamb salad.
