1. Combine the olive oil, mustard, garlic, rosemary,
and pepper to form a paste. Brush the mixture all over
the leg of lamb. Let rest in refrigerator for at least
1 hour. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before roasting.
2. Preheat oven to 350° F. Transfer the leg of
lamb to a roasting pan. Roast in the middle of the oven
for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, beginning to check for doneness
after 1 hour. The roast is medium-rare when an instant-read
thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the roast
registers 135° F.
3. Remove from the oven, and allow the roast to rest
for 15 minutes before carving.
