Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Prepare a roasting tray by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic from 2 cloves, chopped rosemary leaves, salt, and pepper. This will create your herb mixture for the lamb.
Rub the herb mixture all over the leg of lamb, ensuring even coverage. Allow it to sit for a few minutes, absorbing the flavors.
Place the lamb in the center of the roasting tray. Arrange the mixed root vegetables around the lamb.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables, season with salt and pepper, and toss them slightly to coat.
Roast in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Then, scatter the remaining garlic clove, thinly sliced, over the root vegetables. Roast for an additional 15-20 minutes until the lamb reaches your desired level of doneness and the vegetables are tender.
While the lamb and root vegetables are roasting, bring a pot of salted water to boil. Blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.
Remove the lamb and vegetables from the oven and let the lamb rest for about 10 minutes before carving.
In a skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat, add the blanched green beans, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Serve hot with the carved lamb and roasted vegetables.
