Roasted Lamb with Lemon Potatoes
November 4th 2011By June Hersh
This simply delicious roasted lamb recipe came from Rachel Mosios, a Holocaust survivor from Greece whom I interviewed for my first book, Recipes Remembered, a Celebration of Survival. Sunday night meant leg of lamb for Rachel's family. She made the traditional roasted lamb and studded it with garlic, seasoned it with oregano, and treated it to a splash of lemon, which adds an acidic note to the dish. The roasted potatoes linger in the oven after the lamb is cooked and pick up all the flavors of the zesty sauce. In America, you might not be able to find a kosher leg of lamb, feel free to substitute rolled and tied shoulder in its place.

Hard Cider-Braised Lamb Shanks

Serve these succulent braised lamb shanks dressed in a savory apple-shallot sauce for a special fall supper. The shank, a tougher cut of meat from the top of the leg, becomes fall-off-the-bone tender after simmering in hard cider. Don’t skimp on the shallots: peeling 12 of them takes some time, but they are the base for the rich sauce. Serve over mashed rutabaga or potatoes. A succulent lamb dish that is made with hard cider. This would be great for the holidays.
