Slow-Roasted Leg of Lamb

Mix apricots, thyme, rosemary, and 1/2 of the diced garlic and rub onto lamb. Tie lamb with kitchen string and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.

Combine coriander, allspice, cumin, salt, pepper, and vadouvan and rub over lamb. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Brown the roast on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Pour in Madeira wine and bring to a boil, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Place lamb and juices in a pan and rub with chopped rosemary and thyme. Add apple juice and top with lemon slices.

Bake in the preheated oven, basting and rotating the lamb occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), 3 1/2 to 4 hours.

Remove from the oven and let rest until internal temperature reaches 120 degrees F (49 degrees C). In the meantime, transfer the liquid into a pan and boil until thickened as desired, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve lamb with tzatziki sauce.
