Instructions:

The day before, put the curd in a sieve lined with a muslin cloth to drain off excess liquid and soak the apples and pears in white wine. On the day of preparation, roast pine nuts without fat until golden brown. Mix curd cheese with egg yolk.

Add soaked fruit and roasted pine nuts, season with salt and pepper. Rinse leg of lamb, rub dry and score along bone. Remove bones. In addition, cut several pockets lengthwise in the meat.

Season the lamb with salt and pepper. Spread the stuffing into the incised pockets, as well as into the meat in place of the bone. Roll together and carefully wrap with a thread. Do not tie too tightly, so that the filling is not squeezed out. Brush the leg with canola oil and season the outside with salt and pepper in the same way. Place on the broiler and broil for 30-45 min, turning frequently, until pink.

Rest for 10 minutes before cutting and serve with roasted potatoes.
