This is the authentic recipe of Michael Psilakis, Greek-American Chef. He taught me to make garlic confit. We self-butcher Dorper Meat Lambs in winter and freeze. Our lambs are big, a butterflied front leg is 3 pounds, the shoulder two pounds, enough for ten. The bones are used to make stew.I have included an easy way to butterfly your leg of lamb, all you need is a fork and steak knife.The meat tastes better when roasted whole. If it is too much food for one dinner, I roast ten minutes less, cut off the unused portions to freeze, then finish roasting. It freezes and reheats very well if meat is cut in one inch thick steaks. The leg makes 12 steaks of one inch thick, half a pound each, with stuffing.Warning.: this recipe overcooks very easily, from medium rare to well done in minutes. Use a probe thermometer. Take meat out of the oven to rest, it will continue cooking for 15 minutes. Enjoy.#GlobalApron

It’s kinda like Egyptian taste because of baharat, but for sure you’ll like it 😍

This is a simple way to make a leg of lamb.... Some potatoes and pasta salad to finish the dish. Delish! :ohyeaah

This recipe is from Hubby's paternal 'Nana' (grandmother). We spoke on the phone twice before Hubby and I were wed and off to Germany. She was pure Irish, lilting accent and all. She gave me this recipe on our second phone call. I was so grateful and asked what I could give her. Her answer, a great-granddaughter! All the great-grandkids were boys and she longed for a girl. Sadly she passed away while we were in Germany... and sadder still we only have a son. I wish we could have met... I bet she would have had endless stories to tell! This has become our traditional Samhain dinner and a remembrance of Nana. This recipe is very different from others, which have carrots and potatoes. I asked Nana about the missing root veggies and she stated that it is meant to be served with Colcannon, a mashed potato and cabbage or kale dish, so didn't need them.

Not a great lover of lamb, however the meat was so soft and tender that this dish was quite enjoyable.

Farm raised spring lamb, butchered in winter, kept frozen for special occasions.

I used a shoulder of lamb, a good four helpings.

A delicious meal all on its on. The meat so tender it falls apart.

This delicious northern Italian style meal is very easy to prepare. It's slow-cooked in the oven with a “hint of mint” in a vegetable sauce which compliments the meat. When served, it rivals most restaurant dinner plates. It's my signature dish. Serve with polenta, wide flat noodles, or along-side a portion of Italian risotto (recipe is published). Buon Appetito!

I made an easy variation of a recipe that I learnt in a cooking class.Cook the meat to whatever doneness you like. The times I have stated will cook the meat as in the photo, with the meat in the middle only slightly cooked.When cooking in the frying pan, cook on a low heat to get a crispy surface. Don't cook the sides!! Recipe by yucco0205

This is the perfect meal for a cold winter night, and it's not too expensive to Make! Ticks all the boxes.
