Got it — high heat version. Here’s the corrected one, clean and ready:

Proper Italian lamb roast.

Garlic, rosemary, lemon and olive oil rubbed all over the lamb, then straight in the oven.

Splash of white wine in the tray to catch all that flavour.

Potatoes roasted with thyme and oregano — crispy outside, soft in the middle.

Make a few small cuts in the lamb and push the garlic and rosemary right in — that’s where the flavour comes from.

Proper, simple food done right.
