Main course: leg of lamb from the oven

Wash and dry the leg of the lamb. Rub the meat everywhere with one of the peeled garlic cloves. Place the leg in a clay bowl, salt on all sides and rub evenly with the lard. Sprinkle with the oregano and pour the broth onto the frying surface. Preheat the oven and fry the meat at 200°C for 40 minutes. Pour the broth in between and continue frying for 20-30 minutes until the meat is cooked on the inside. Serve with the sauce in a clay form and serve salad or potatoes.
Side dish: rosemary potatoes

- 1-2 tbsp sea salt
Simply mix the potato slices or halved mini potatoes with good olive oil, fresh rosemary and coarse sea salt and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 30 minutes on a tray with top and bottom heat. yummy!
Dessert: bottomless cheesecake
- 250 g butter
- 4 eggs
- 250 g sugar
- 2 packets of vanilla sugar
- 150 g wheat semolina
- 1 packet of baking soda
- 1/2 lemon
- 1 kg low-fat quark
- breadcrumbs
Mix the butter, eggs and sugar with the hand mixer until creamy. Add the durum wheat semolina and baking powder and mix well, finally the quark and lemon juice. Pour the mixture into a greased baking pan sprinkled with the breadcrumbs and bake in the oven for 50 minutes at 200° degrees top and bottom heat on the middle shelf. It also tastes great warm! If you like, you can also use the quark cake like a cake cake and top it with fruit and fix a cake glaze. We tried it with mandarins. But churches and strawberries, bananas or raspberries are also suitable for this.
