If you’re still planning your Easter meal, look no further than Woolworths’ free-range leg of lamb. Sourced from pasture-raised lambs that are never given routine antibiotics or growth stimulants, this cut offers tender, juicy meat that’s perfect for a family feast. Woolworths prides itself on its fresh, locally sourced lamb that’s never frozen, so you can expect the best in both quality and flavour.

Leg of lamb is a versatile choice for Easter, and when it’s roasted on the bone, it captures maximum flavour. For a simple yet delicious roast, season the lamb with garlic, fresh rosemary, lemon and a dash of olive oil. This combination ensures a succulent roast with crispy edges, perfect for any occasion. Plus, slow-roasting brings out the natural richness of the meat, making it a showstopper on your Easter table.
