Roast Leg of Lamb with Grilled Summer Beans and Anchovy-Parsley Butter

This elegant roast leg of lamb with grilled summer beans offers a sophisticated update to the traditional Sunday lunch. The lamb is deeply seasoned by studding the meat with garlic and anchovies, which melt during roasting to create a savoury depth of flavour. Served alongside a vibrant mix of charred green and yellow wax beans, the dish feels light yet indulgent, making it a perfect centrepiece for a seasonal dinner party or a family gathering during the warmer months.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe prioritises high-quality protein and nutrient-dense vegetables over heavy starches. The homemade anchovy-parsley butter provides a rich, creamy finish without the need for a flour-thickened gravy, keeping the dish naturally lower in carbohydrates. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a heart-healthy, balanced meal that doesn't compromise on gourmet appeal or punchy, Mediterranean-inspired flavours.

Using small sharp knife, make sixteen 1-inch-deep slits all over lamb. Push 1/2 anchovy and 1 garlic quarter into each slit. Place lamb on small rack in centre of large rimmed baking sheet. Brush lamb with olive oil. Cover with plastic wrap; chill overnight.
