  3. In a food processor (or with a whisk), mix all the paste ingredients together and rub all over the meat.  Allow to sit at room temperature for about 1 hour.
  4. Roast the lamb in the center of the oven for about 30 minutes.  Pour wine (or soup) over meat.  Baste and reduce the temperature to 350°F (180°C) and continue to roast for about 1 to 1-1/2 hours longer or until done.  Basting every half-hour or so.  The wine (or soup) and the drippings will form a delicious gravy.
