Mix the spices, colouring, lemon juice, ginger and garlic up into a paste with a little water and stir in well with the yogurt to make a tandoori marinade. Remove the fat from the leg of lamb and make several deep scores across the meat using a sharp knife. Marinate the leg of lamb in the marinade for 24-60 hours. Preheat the oven to it's highest heat for at least 20 minutes. Shake off excess marinade and place the lamb in a roasting dish in the oven. Pour over a little vegetable oil. Cook at 200 degrees for 2 hours or until the meat is cooked as you like, keep basting with the oil every 20 minutes or so, serve with a wedge of lemon.
