Marinate the lamb
In a small bowl, mix the finely chopped rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade. Rub the marinade all over the leg of lamb, covering it completely. Place the lamb in a large dish, cover it with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Prepare the potatoes
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel and cut the potatoes into 1.5-inch pieces. In a large bowl, toss the potato pieces with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Roast the lamb and potatoes
Remove the leg of lamb from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Place the lamb in a large roasting pan and arrange the seasoned potato pieces around the lamb. Roast the lamb and potatoes in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the lamb reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
Rest and slice the lamb
Remove the roasting pan from the oven and transfer the leg of lamb to a cutting board. Cover the lamb loosely with aluminum foil and let it rest for 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, return the potatoes to the oven to crisp up for an additional 10-15 minutes.
Serve
Slice the rested leg of lamb against the grain into 0.5-inch thick slices. Arrange the sliced lamb on a serving platter and surround it with the crispy roasted potatoes. Serve the Leg of Lamb with Potatoes hot, family-style.
