   Step 6

   Bake 200 degrees Celsius (390 degrees Fahrenheit) 50 minutes using both top and bottom heat. Remove the lamb leg, remove the aluminum foil, brush it with honey, sprinkle with cumin seeds and chili, brush with oil, and place it on the middle rack to bake 40 minutes. Place a baking tray lined with aluminum foil on the bottom rack to catch drippings (for easy cleanup). Perfectly baked!
