@luccac6247 2 месяца назад

This entire dish is a flavor bomb. So many levels that compliment one another. As a Greek whom cooked in the past, you did the lamb well. Nicely done. Easter in Greece is a huge event in every part of the country. More so than Christmas. Lamb is done differently depending on region. I enjoyed watching the different techniques you used with your preparation.

@straker454 2 месяца назад

Okay, so, first, Happy Easter, second, I made this today and it was a huge hit. My mother's husband is Greek, he's in his late 60's and he said this was the best lamb he's ever eaten. I did a seven pound leg and I think next time I could reduce the salt rub to just one tablespoon of salt. I did even out the olive oil and lemon juice to a half cup each which made skimming the oil off the sauce easier. Potatoes were perfect and I served this with a simple Mediterranean salad and made from fresh pita bread and tzatziki I made the night before along with some spiced Hypocras wine I made six months ago. Outstanding meal...I am still so damn full, lol. I will definitely be making this again. Meat was to tender and not a bit dried out.

@rickblackwell6435 2 месяца назад

I made this dish last night for an early Easter dinner. It was 100% delicious. Highly recommended. Having said that, I opted to skip the ladolemono sauce as the marinade one cooked down was fantastic on both the lamb and potatoes.

@mickeyzalusky9312 2 месяца назад

Jim, I made your recipe tonight and it will be the only way I make leg of lamb going forward!!! I agree that salting the roast overnight is a must. I let my covered roast get to 200°F internal temperature. I poured out all the juices, defatting it and added it to a saucepan. The seasoning was so perfect I simply thickened the juices with a little cornstarch slurry. I added the potatoes to a rimmed baking sheet, then popped the roast and the potatoes under the broiler to crisp up. The thickened pan juices were so good, I chose not to make the Ladolemono sauce. Thank you for this wonderful recipe. I look forward to watching more Sip & Feast episodes. Love the tasters’ reviews but I also like watching your reactions to them as they eat, review and rate your recipes.

We love lamb any time of year, no special occasion required, although we have had it for Easter sometimes. (Easter is the only time we make a baked ham, so we kind of alternate years.) The Greek style with the Greek flavorings sounds intriguing and tender, fall-off-the-bone anything is really delicious. Thanks for the idea! I’m going to make it with some roasted lemons, halved. Besides tasting great, the roasted lemons also look great!

@WilliamStout27 2 месяца назад

@costast2846 2 месяца назад

Hi and best wishes from Greece. I watch your channel regularly and I like what you’re doing. I encourage you to show more Greek recipes. The Greek kitchen is amazing, but unfortunately underrated. You did a great job with this recipe; it’s very close to the original! The only thing that I’d recommend is to use smaller potatoes. This way the wedges will be just like the ones of the original recipe.

Nice! Very recently I've made leg of lamb for the first time. Recipe in same sort of style, but I made it on my kamado BBQ. I 'm still not over how good that was. I did however not go up to shreddable meat temps, so really wanna try this and go with the fall of the bone tenderness. Thanks again for the great video!

Looks great! Jim and James should try making lamb shawarma (boneless butterflied leg is my go to choice of cut). I often make chicken shawarma (boneless thighs) also. The chicken/lamb combination is wonderful. I do recommend separate pans because the chicken cooks faster.

Nice, I’m doing a leg on my bbq rotisserie for Easter. Using za’atar but will be salting ahead of time like you did, thanks for that tip, and incorporating my spices in a similar Marinade maybe yogurt and lemon.

Lamb is not beef. It is better well done than rare. Thank you for saying it! I love this recipe because I always save my lamb fat for roasting potatoes. It's liquid gold...About 20 years ago I was looking for lamb to make Irish stew and went all over the city and there was no lamb. I wound up at a middle eastern deli where they sold cooked lamb. I asked them to sell me some lamb shoulder and they called me into the back. The guy cut enormous chunks and put them in a plastic bag with some lemon juice and olive oil. By the time I got home, I knew that I wasn't going to be making "Irish Stew" with that lemon and olive oil marinated lamb and I did not care. Most tender delicious lamb stew of my life.

@SE013 2 месяца назад

It depends. The legs and shoulders are great for braising and cooking fully, but the filet, loin, ribs are better rare/medium-rare usually.

@dee_dee_place 2 месяца назад

That sounds wonderful. I have a great butcher that I use. All I have to do is call ahead & if they don't have something on hand, they will order it for me. Most of their products are obtained from local ranchers but some oddball things like ox tail, duck breast, & rabbit are flash-frozen & vacuum packaged from out-of-state ranchers. Everything is always fresh. A lot of the restaurants in my area use the same butcher. It's so nice to be able to get the proteins that you want for a recipe. I'll have to call them to see if I can get a lamb shoulder.

@ninmc5959 2 месяца назад

@@dee_dee_place when i can get rabbit it’s great in a pie or a stew. Don’t see it very often in butchers near me unfortunately.
