Seasoning the Meat Lamb is flavorful enough on its own that it doesn't need much seasoning, yet robust enough that it pairs beautifully with any number of boldly flavoured seasonings, like rosemary, oregano, marjoram, thyme, lemon zest, cumin, coriander, mint and garlic.
Another popular way to season a roast is to make small incisions in the surface of the meat and push slivers of garlic and sprigs of herbs into the slits. You can do this right before you begin roasting or a day ahead for a more intense flavour.
Season the lamb however you like--but don't salt it until just before cooking, as salt can draw moisture out of the meat.
