You literally open the meat up like a butterflies wings, which means you can then fill it all up with herbs and other flavours, and the meat should cook evenly all the way through, rather than having much thicker sections. The term butterflying can be applied to just about anything... Steak, Prawns, Chicken breasts... anywhere you want to open something up to help it cook. Cheers, Matt Hi Mary,

I take it to mean that you have, after deboning the leg, cut slits all over the inside and spread the meat out. Do correct me if I am wrong.

Add to that some crusty bread to dip with, and soak up every last little drip, and you’ve got yourself the perfect lazy meal. I have fond memories of Sunday nights as a child in our family. Mum was more than likely over the idea cooking anything fancy after spending all day preparing the Sunday roast.

We had to beat people away from the door trying to get some... Taste, vision, and smell are inextricably linked... which would explain why nice food photos make me drool.
