Steps:
- Mix the butter and oil in a bowl, then stir in the spices, thyme, garlic, lemon zest and juice. Add the harissa, 1 tsp salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, and mix well.
- Put the butterflied lamb (see step-by-step guide) in a large shallow dish and spoon over the marinade. Using your hands, rub it all over the meat. Cover loosely with foil or cling film and leave to marinate for at least 2 hrs, or overnight in the fridge.
- Light the barbecue, adding plenty of coals. When it is ready, add the lamb, fat-side down, and cook on a fairly high heat for 5 mins until well browned. Turn over and cook for another 5 mins to brown the other side.
- Move the coals to the sides of the barbecue to reduce the heat under the meat and cook more gently for 30-40 mins, turning occasionally. This timing will give you pink meat.
- Remove the meat to a large board and cover tightly with foil. Leave to rest for 10-15 mins.
- For the sauce, fold the harissa, a little salt and the coriander into the yogurt. Cut the lamb into thick slices and serve with the sauce and couscous, if you like.

GREEK BUTTERFLIED LAMB LEG
Recipe video above. This is a terrific, bold Greek marinade for lamb that both tenderises and infuses it with garlicky, herby, lemon flavours. Butterflied lamb leg is a fantastic way to enjoy lamb because the flattened shape means it can be cooked relatively quickly compared to roasting a whole leg. In fact, I think that butterflied lamb leg is one of the best cuts of lamb for the BBQ!

Steps:
- Wipe lamb dry with paper towels and remove any large pieces of fat. In a small bowl, mix together mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, rosemary and pepper. Spread mixture over lamb on both sides. Refrigerate for three hours or overnight.
- Preheat coal for grilling. Spread mint leaves on a serving dish so that they make a thick carpet. Lay lamb on a rack and grill seven to eight minutes on each side for medium rare. Cook longer for well done.
- Place lamb on a board and slice pieces thin with a sharp knife. Arrange pieces on top of the mint in overlapping layers and serve.

Steps:
- Mix garlic, paprika, oregano, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and oil in a dish large enough to accommodate the butterflied lamb (or use a snaplock bag -- much easier).
- Score the fatty top of the lamb well.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Put lamb in marinade and refrigerate for three hours minimum (overnight is tastier).
- Remove from fridge 30 minutes before you want to cook it.
- Preheat your barbecue grill on high then reduce to medium high. Place the lamb skin side down for 10 minutes. Turn and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium low. Cover lamb with either bbq hood or an upturned baking tray. Cook for 15 minutes for medium or longer if you like your lamb well done.
- Remove from heat and cover loosely with foil, rest in a warm place for 10 minutes. Slice across the grain and serve.

Steps:
- Combine the wine, soy sauce, oil, garlic and herbs and pour over the lamb in a shallow glass or enamel pan (aluminum will react with acidity in the wine and affect the taste). Refrigerate, covered, for 6 hours, turning the lamb occasionally.
- Prepare coals for grilling. Drain the lamb and reserve the marinade. Place the lamb on the grill 4 inches above the coals. Grill 15 minutes per side for rare, or 20 for medium, basting frequently with the marinade. Slice thinly and arrange on a large platter garnished with sprigs of fresh rosemary.

Steps:
- Make the marinade: mix the sugar, lemon juice and zest with the olive oil, balsamic and some seasoning. Stir to dissolve the sugar then mix in the garlic and mint. Reserve half of the marinade to use as a dressing for the lamb later.
- Open out the meat and lay it in a deep tray. Pour the marinade on top then turn to coat all over in the mix. Cover with cling film and leave for 1 hr or overnight in the fridge.
- Remove the lamb from the fridge and shake off any excess marinade back into the tray. Insert a skewer so that it goes from one corner to the opposite one. Do the same with another skewer in the opposite direction - this makes it really easy to turn the meat on the barbecue.
- Heat a barbecue or griddle pan until it's a medium heat. Cook the lamb for 15-20 mins, turning frequently for pink lamb or longer if you prefer it more done. When cooked, rest for 5-10 mins before taking out the skewers, slicing and serving with the reserved marinade for pouring over.

BARBECUED BUTTERFLIED LEG OF LAMB WITH A MINTED COUSCOUS SALAD
This recipe is from http:www.dariwillfarm.com.au/recipes.html and sounds delicious, they served it with a Minted Couscous Salad. Times are estimated, though have not included 2 hour marinade time and would assume you would make the couscous salad while lamb is cooking.

Steps:
- In a large bowl mix 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil with the black pepper, chilli, fennel seeds and cumin.
- Rub mix all over the butterflied leg of lamb and then cover and leave for at least 2 hours.
- Season lamb with salt.
- Cook lamb on a medium barbecue heat for about 15 minutes on each side.
- Then remove from heat and let rest for 10 minutes before cutting into this slices.
- This will give a medium rare lamb, if you like your lamb more well done leave it on longer until done to your desired taste, personally I would be allowing about 45 minutes all up but we like ours well done.
- Couscous Salad - Bring 1 1/2 cups of salted water to the boil and then add the couscous, return to the boil and mix well.
- Turn off the heat, cover with a lid and leave for 5 minutes.
- After that time, transfer the couscous to a bowl, mix in the 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil and allow to cool.
- Add the lemon juice, mint leaves, chopped garlic, diced tomatoes and parsley to the couscous.
- Serve with sliced lamb.
