We are doing leg of lamb, marinated in a combination of orange juice, pomegranite juice, white wine, olive oil, rosemary, garlic, onion and thyme (blended in a blender). We have stabbed the leg repeatedly with a fork so the marinade will penetrate the meat, put the whole thing in a big bag and are marinating it for a day before roasting it tomorrow in the oven.
This is being served with asparagus braised in butter with carmelized onions and Mrs. Dash, and biscuits. Gravy is being made from the marinade.
