Transcript
00:00We're going to show you how to butterfly bone a leg of lamb.
00:06For this you need a really sharp knife, a boning knife is handy because it's got a
00:10thinner blade.
00:12Guide your knife very carefully along the leg bone, feeling your way as you go.
00:28Keeping your knife close to the bone, just cut away.
00:54Trim off any sinewy bits and then open up the edges.
00:57What you really are looking for is an even thickness of meat.
01:02So you can see we're trimming along the sides and then putting in the stuffing.
01:08It's a bit messy but just stuff it all in and roll it.
01:23Now you'll need some butcher's string and just make evenly spaced knots all the way
01:29along.
01:30Probably leave a couple of centimetres in between each tie.
01:43Work your way along, trim off any bits of string that are hanging over and you're ready
01:53to roast.
