411 g (14 ½ oz) can apricot halves
175 g fresh breadcrumbs
45 ml chopped fresh parsley
25 g chopped mixed nuts
finely grated rind of ½ a lemon
30 ml lemon juice

- Melt the butter in a saucepan and lightly brown the onion. Drain and roughly chop three-quarters of the apricots, reserving the rest for garnishing.
- Mix together the onion, chopped apricots, breadcrumbs, parsley and nuts and stir in the lemon rind and juice, seasoning and egg.
- Lay the breasts of lamb fat side down on a work surface, overlapping slightly, and spread the stuffing evenly over them. Roll up the lamb breasts loosely and tie in several places with string to hold their shape. Weigh the joints.
- Heat the oil in a small roasting thin and roast the joint at 180°C mark 4 for 25 minutes per 450 g plus 25 minutes, basting occasionally. Serve garnished with the reserved apricots.
