Trim off and discard all the fat and the parchment-like white skin (also known as the fell) from the lamb. Put the meat into a large shallow ceramic dish and set aside.
-
Put the cumin and coriander seeds into a pan and cook over a high heat until they begin to release their aromas. Put into a mortar and pestle and grind to a fine powder. Set aside.
-
Put the almonds, onion, garlic, ginger, chillies and 3tbsp of the yogurt into a food processor and blend to a paste. Put the remaining yogurt into a bowl, stir well and add the paste, ground cumin and coriander, cayenne pepper, salt and garam masala. Stir well to combine.
-
Spoon the yogurt mixture over the lamb and use a brush to encourage it into all the nooks and crannies. Turn the lamb over, making sure the leg is well coated, then cover with clingfilm, put into the fridge and leave to marinate for 24hr.
-
Remove the lamb from the fridge about 45 minutes before you want to cook it, to allow it to come up to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan oven) mark 6. Transfer the lamb and all of the marinade to a roasting tin. Heat the oil in a small frying pan, add the cloves, cardamom pods, cinnamon and peppercorns, and fry until they begin to release their aromas. Pour over the lamb.
-
Cover the roasting tin with foil and roast for 1hr 30min. Remove the foil, put back in the oven and roast for a further 45min, basting occasionally. Put the lamb on to a serving platter and press the sauce through a fine sieve into a bowl. Garnish the lamb with flat-leafed parsley (if using) and serve with the sauce on the side.
