I'll start off wit one of my all time greats, a receipe my step father taught me.
Portugese Lamb.
Ingrediants:
1 leg of lamb on the bone [roughly 1kg at least]
2 large onions, sliced
5 Bay leaves
3 segments of garlic
1/3 of a cup of dry sherry
4 tablespoons of Soy Sauce
a couple of stems of Rosemerry
a good dash of white pepper
table spoon of olive oil
1/3 bottle of white wine
Method: Slice the garlic segments into slivers and with your sharp knife, stab your lamb leg to make holes in which to stud the meat with.
Then in a oven prooff and sealable cassarole dish, put in your oil, sliced onions and leg of lamb, with at least some bayleaves and rosemerry on the bottom beneath the lamb. Cover the lamb with the sherry and Soy Sauce and remaining herbs. Cover the dish and place in the oven set at 180C for at least 2 hours.
After 2 hours the lamb will be fully cooked and should be falling of the bone. Remove the meat from the bone and place back into the dish and add the 1/3 of a bottle of wine. This makes the sauce. Then put the dish back into the oven for another 1/2 an hour to reduce the sauce a bit.
I would recommend you serve this dish with white rice and crispy cooked roasted potatos plus steamed green vegetables like Zucchini and Snow peas. I'd also recommend a good red wine to go with the dish such as a good Shiraz or Cabinet Savingnon.
Bon Apetite friends
