AGNELLO ALLA CACCIATORE (LAMB HUNTER'S STYLE)
I found this in a book (I will update as soon as I figure out which one). I made a few changes and now it is my own. This makes a wonderful sauce and the lamb is perfect. I hope you enjoy it too. Serve it as a meat dish as part of a larger meal or with pasta, risotto, polenta or mashed potatoes or as suggested by the book with 6 slices of good Tuscan bread, 1" thick toasted and rubbed with garlic arranged on a platter and the lamb spooned over, yum! The egg yolk at the end really gives it a nice touch.

RABBIT, HUNTER-STYLE: CONIGLIO ALLA CACCIATORA
Steps:
- In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the rabbit and cook until brown. Turn the rabbit over and cook the other side. Remove the browned rabbit to a plate and hold aside.
- When all rabbit is removed, add the onion, garlic, and mushrooms. Saute until the onion is tender. Add in the browned rabbit and season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Add the tomatoes, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until rabbit is done. Remove the rabbit from the sauce and keep warm. Remove the cover and simmer for another 10 minutes on high heat to concentrate the sauce. Adjust the seasoning if necessary. Pour sauce on top of rabbit and sprinkle with parsley.
RAGù DI AGNELLO (LAMB)
Steps:
- Mince finely together the onion, carrot, celery, marjoram, sage, and rosemary needles (in the food processor if desired) and put in a medium saucepan with the oil. Cook over low heat until the vegetables just turn pale gold, about 8 minutes.
- Add the meat and brown gently, stirring.
- Raise the heat and add the wine. Let it bubble until you can no longer smell any alcohol, about 2 minutes.
- Add the drained tomatoes, the chile, and 1 level teaspoon salt. Lower the heat and cook, covered, for about an hour, stirring occasionally. You'll know the sauce is done when it has visibly thickened and the fat has separated and bubbles on the surface.
- Make-ahead note: The sauce may be made ahead up to this point and refrigerated until the next day. After some hours of chilling, the fat will come to the surface and can be removed very easily.
- Bring 5 quarts (5 liters) of water to a boil in an 8-quart (8-liter) pot over high heat. Add 3 tablespoons kosher salt, then add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente.
- Warm a serving bowl or platter in a low oven. If the oven is not practical, warm the bowl just before use with hot water, even a ladleful of the pasta cooking water.
- Drain and transfer the pasta to the heated serving bowl. Toss the pasta first with the cheese and then with the sauce. Finish with a sprinkling of parsley and serve immediately.
