    How long to cook lamb

    A question for all the good cooks on Scooploop.
    I have guests coming for dinner on Wednesday and I'm planning to serve roast leg of lamb will all the trimmings.
    The problem is how long to cook it.
    I have a 3.116kg leg of lamb and the label says 8 minutes per 100g at 170 degrees, which adds up to 249 minutes or over four hours, which seems a lot.
    I've looked up various websites to see how long it needs to be in the oven and the suggested times include 158 minutes, 186 minutes, 124 minutes, 140 minutes and 207 minutes, with temperatures varying from 170 degrees to 200 degrees.
    I like lamb well done rather than pink.
    So if you cook leg of lamb on a regular basis how long would you cook it for and at what temperature for it to be well done?
    I have a fan oven.
