So here is the recipe of the Syrian baked lamb I told you about. I bought a lamb leg, and asked the butcher to remove the bone and cut it in cubes (it makes 6 servings). I had about 7 ounces of meat per person.
lamb leg in cubes
2 chopped onions
1 lb ripe peeled tomatoes , cut in cubes
4 Tbs olive oil
1 cup of red wine
4 garlic cloves
salt
pepper
fresh rosemary
fresh thyme
Heat the oven over medium heat.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over high heat, put the lamb, and stir 5 minutes, then add the chopped onion, the garlic cloves that you have smashed with a knife, the tomatoes, salt, pepper, and herbs.
Remove. Put in a pan and cover, if the pan does not have a cover (I use a cast iron pan), you can improvise one with foil paper. Bake for 1 hour, then remove from the oven, remove the cover, and put back in the oven for 15 minutes. THere should be juice but not that much. Just enough, like the picture in the previous post!
Remove from the oven and serve.
We had Syrian rice with this lamb.
Bon appetit!
