I'm making roast shank-end leg of lamb for dinner tonight, partly so that we can get the meat off the bone to use it for the Passover seder plate. (I would like to say that this was planned, but as it happened we went to a new grocery store, I saw shank-end lamb legs, I said, "Ooh, that's the perfect size for leg of lamb for two!" and bought it. On the other hand, probably the reason the grocery store had a whole section of shank-end leg of lamb was because of Passover, so.)

Normally I season lamb pretty simply: salt, pepper, and garlic, with mint and lemon used either as a filling, a rub, or a sauce at the end, depending on cooking method. But, while I have salt, pepper, garlic, and lemon, I do not have any mint right now. What other flavors do you like with lamb? Inquiring minds want to know!

EDIT: I was thinking maybe a lime-cumin marinade? Or a balsamic glaze, maybe. But I'm not sure, and would love suggestions.
