Wet and delicious, 2 Ingredient Slow Cooker Roast Lamb is prepared in seconds. You won’t want to roast a leg of lamb any other way once you’ve tried this easy slow cook roast!
Today I’m sharing my stupidly easy plus completely moist and delicious 2-ingredient slow cook roast lamb.
As we approach summer and expect hot days, I really don’t want to spend a lot of time cooking or turning on the oven in an already hot stove. Last Sunday was a sweltering day and I had a virus. The last thing I wanted to do was cook or wash a lot of greasy, burnt pans, but I had half a leg of lamb that I needed to cook.
So instead of roasting it in the oven along with the potatoes, I decided that a less dirty and fresher solution would be to roast my half leg of lamb in the slow cooker and make ActiFry roast potatoes. So all I had to do was boil/steam some vegetables and make some sauce.
In the past I have made cuts in the lamb joint and inserted garlic and fresh rosemary
.
However, this was really one of those days when even the slightest was a great effort. So, I decided that my husband’s idea of simply drizzling a bucket of lamb broth to improve the taste a bit sounded like a fabulous idea.
If you have a cook’s syringe or one of those fancy jugs that separates fat from meat juices, you can add the juices to your sauce for a big flavor boost.
We were all
in food heaven eating our Sunday roast lamb, the meat was very tender and falling out of the bone and the bouillon bucket really improved the taste of
the lamb. I
was so happy I didn’t spoil my oven with all the lamb fat and there were no cumbersome roasting cans to wash.
So summer or winter I will definitely use the slow cooker to roast all my Lamb joints from now on and it is also very energy efficient.
Do you need to brown the lamb before cooking it slowly?
No, there is no need to brown the lamb before cooking it slowly, as the broth cube forms a beautiful golden finish on the skin.
Do you need any added liquid to slowly cook the leg of lamb?
No, the leg of lamb will be cooked in its own juices to make a beautifully tender meat.
How long does it take to cook half a leg of lamb in the slow cooker?
In high 3 1/2 – 4 hours and in low 7 – 8 hours.
How can you
adapt this slow-roast lamb recipe?
If you have a little more time, you can make some cuts in the lamb and add garlic cloves (cut in half) and sprigs of rosemary for a delicious alternative. .

was recently asked “how long will it take a 2kg leg of lamb to cook slowly”
