   2      teaspoons     coriander -- ground
   3      teaspoons     cayenne
   3 1/2  teaspoons     salt
                        GROUP C
     1/2  tablespoon    whole cloves
  16      whole         cardamom
   1      stick         cinnamon
  10      whole         black peppercorns
                        DECORATIONS
                        whole almonds
                        golden raisins

In a food processor or blender mix 
GROUP A

In a bowl stir the pint of yogurt (minus the 3 tablespoons) until creamy and
smooth. Then add the Group A paste and

Add GROUP B

Now, put this mixture over, around, and in the leg of lamb. Use a glass pan
and cover with plastic film. Refridgerate for 24 hours. Glass is used to avoid
the possible chemical changes in the yogurt.  24 Hours later:  Heat 6
tablespoons of vegetable oil in pan and add (when hot but not smoking) GROUP C
A few seconds in hot oil and you pour the spices and hot oil over the lamb.
Cover it all with foil and bake at 400F for 1 1/2 hours then uncover for 45
minutes.

Decorate with whole almonds and golden raisins. Then give it a final 5 minutes
to finish in the oven.

I did a flower with the almonds as petals and raisins for the center. Then
arranged two rows of each down the sides.
