While the oven is heating up, cut the garlic head in half and lay on a sheet of tin foil, season with salt and pepper and drizzle the olive oil over the halved garlic. Once up to temperature, wrap the foil around the garlic and place in the oven. Cook for about 45 minutes or until golden brown and tender to the touch. Once the garlic has cooled, gently squeeze out all the garlic cloves. Once they are squeezed out, place them in a blender and blend until smooth. FOR THE LAMB: Set oven @ 425ºF/218ºC. Mix the rosemary leaves and the roasted garlic puree into a chunky paste. Using your fingers, massage the chunky paste into the meat. Season liberally with salt and black pepper. Place the lamb on a rack in a roasting pan, fat side up. Roast 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350ºF/175ºC and roast until internal temperature reaches 130ºF/55ºC to 135ºF/57ºC (for medium-rare or medium meat), about another 60 to 90 minutes. Baste every 20 minutes or so with the drippings in the pan. If possible, for the last 15 minutes of cooking, use convection or a broiler to crisp the fat on the roast. Remove pan from the oven, remove rack from the pan, and let the roast rest on the rack for at least 60 minutes in a warm place, tented with foil. Cut the lamb into 1/2" thick slices and arrange on a heated platter, decorated with rosemary sprigs. RECIPE FROM: https://www.cbsnews.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
