02Scrape the contents of the roasting pan into a blender. Add the cumin, garlic and sesame paste, and blend, adding the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil in a thin stream. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature with roast leg of lamb or as a dip with crunchy bread and pickled chilies.
