Wash the meat, dab dry and rub with salt and pepper. Wash thyme, dab off leaves and place in the middle of the leg. Tie the meat with kitchen string. Heat the oil in a roasting pan and fry the meat thoroughly all around. Deglaze with wine and broth, add bay and juniper berries, bring to the boil, cover and leave to braise in a preheated oven (electric range: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for 2 1/2 hours. In the meantime, wash, peel and quarter the quinces and remove the core.
Cut the quinces into thin slices. Boil up 1/4 litre of water, lemon juice and sugar. Steam quinces in it for about 5 minutes. Heat clarified butter. Add red cabbage and 1/8 litre quince juice. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Take the roast out and keep it warm. Stir flour and cream until smooth. Pour roast stock through a sieve into a pot, bring to the boil and thicken with the whisked flour. Let it boil well. Sprinkle meat with thyme, arrange on a plate with red cabbage, quinces and some sauce. Garnish with parsley as desired.
