Open the boneless leg of lamb. Cut the superfluous fat away.

Cut a few deep incisions in the meat and put the pieces in a large flat dish. Pour the yogurt marinaden over and use a brush so you can get the well into the cuts. Cover the dish loosely with cling film and put it in the refrigerator so the meat can marinate overnight.
