But her man must show her he can cook lol
Might I suggest a slightly different recipe instead of the traditional mint sauce. You'll need; 1/2 Pt orange juice, 2 Tblsps Apricot Jam, 2Tblsps of soy sauce, 2 Tblsps of Lee & Perrin Worcester sauce, several cloves of garlic (crushed) and some dried rosemary.
Place leg of lamb in roasting tin and pour orange juice over it, add the soy and worcester sauce. Spoon the Apricot Jam onto the lamb and sprinkle with the dried rosemary. Crush the garlic and place that on top too. Leave lamb in marinade, occasionally spooning the juice over it so as not to allow it to dry. When ready to cook, remove lamb from marinade and dry roast in the oven for approx 45 mins. Romove from oven and pour off any excess fat. Pour marinade over lamb and return to oven. Continue to baste at intervals until lamb is cooked!!!

Make sure the lamb is thoroughly cooked OG, or in three days time it will rise up and create a world of misery....
Agnus Dei is a choir from New College, Oxford that did a decent rendition of Adagio for strings by Barber.....One of my favourite classical pieces.....

You might as well simply stand there and spoon 15 full teaspoons of sugar over the lamb !!
1/2 pt Orange juice contains 23g sugar
2 tblsp apricot jam contains 24g sugar
2 tblsp soy sauce contains 7g sugar
2 tblsp worcester sauce contains 6g sugar
Total sugar content 60g
Equiv of 15 teaspoonfuls of sugar!
If you were to approach your life eating regime like that you would likely end up old, fat, very ill and spend most of your time in an armchair being grumpy and belligerent!
Lamb is a beautiful meat with lots of its own flavour. It doesn't require dressing up in sugar ! Simple garlic and rosemary would suffice adequately for great depth of flavour.

Urinate elsewhere!!! - I happen to like the taste of it - a recipe used fairly extensively in North Africa!!!
