- Brown the lamb roulade in a frying pan until golden.
- Combine the rest of the ingredients and heat to 80°C, let infuse for half an hour.
- Place the leg of lamb in the stock and let it reach a core temperature of 63°C, do not let the stock get warmer than 80°C.
- Baste the leg of lamb occasionally and turn it from time to time.
- Remove the leg of lamb from the spiced stock and let it cool well. Slice the leg of lamb thinly.
- Put the oil in a vacuum bag and add the sumac.
- Steam at 52°C for 20 minutes.
- Rinse well with cold water and blend until smooth in the blender.
