Instructions
To prepare the lamb, combine the first 8 ingredients (through garlic) in a large bowl; add 4 tablespoons of the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss well to combine.
Place the vegetable mixture in the center of a large, deep roasting pan. Rub the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over the lamb, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Place the lamb on top of the vegetable mixture. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest portion of the lamb.
Bake at 450 for 50 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 (do not remove the lamb from the oven).
Bake 20 minutes more, or until the thermometer registers 150 (for medium-rare). Roast to desired degree of doneness, stirring the vegetables every 15 minutes.
Place the roast on a heated platter, and cover with foil.
Let stand 15 minutes before carving.
Drain the vegetables through a fine sieve into a bowl (reserve the liquid for sauce).
Place the vegetables in a bowl, and stir in the parsley and vinegar.
To prepare the gremolata, combine the ingredients in a small bowl, and toss to combine.
Serve a small spoonful with the lamb.
