Best Cypriot Baked Lamb And Potatoes With Cumin And Tomatoes Recipes
TAVE (CYPRIOT BAKED LAMB AND POTATOES WITH CUMIN AND TOMATOES)
This delicious all-in-one meal couldn't get any easier or tastier. You can just fling it into the oven and pop over to the pub for a drink or two with friends, and when you get back it's almost ready! You may also use lamb chops instead of the cubes of lamb. It's great either way! The long slow cooking results in meltingly tender lamb and succulent potatoes.

Steps:
- Roughly chop the onions and cut the potatoes into large chunks. Slice the tomatoes into thick slices.
- Pre-heat the oven to 180*C/350*F. Put the potatoes, onions and the lamb into a deep baking dish and season with salt and pepper. Add the parsley, cumin and olive oil, thoroughly mixing with your hands. (natures best tool!) Layer the tomatoes on top and season them lightly with salt. Dot with butter and pour about 1/2 cup of water around the sides of the dish. Cover tightly with foil.
- Bake for 2 hours, stirring several times, the lamb should be tender and the potatoes soft.
- Remove the foil, increasing the oven temperature to 200*C/400*F. Cook for 45 minutes longer, stirring halfway through, until the lamb and potatoes are browned and the liquid has reduced somewhat. Serve hot or at room temperature with a salad.

CYPRIOT BAKED LAMB AND POTATOES WITH CUMIN AND TOMATOES
from "Falling Cloudberries" by Tessa Kiros In the book, the recipe description reads: "This is so simple. It's a very typical Cipriot all-in-one meal--you just need the time to prepare the lamb and vegetables, then you can fling it in the oven, go out for a (Greek) coffee, and come home to a ready meal. You could use lamb chops and leave them whole instead of cutting them into chunks, which makes it even simpler. And it doesn't need much by way of accompaniments--perhaps a salad or some simply sauteed vegetables."

TASTY BAKED LAMB WITH FETA CHEESE AND TOMATOES
This is my husband's special dish he makes us for a treat. The flavours are lovely and he impressed me with it before we were married - I couldn't believe he'd cooked it! (I've since learned he is a good cook but keeps it quiet) He normally serves with some fresh steamed broccoli. As its so easy to make he passed the recipe onto a friend who wanted to impress his girlfriend but he didn't serve with any veggies and it does need something with it that's not baked - although she was impressed with the dish she told me. You can play around with the quantities to suit you as long as the basic ingredents are there. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cube the neck fillet and place on the base of a 9inch square oven dish.
- Change the dish size to suit you but we normally have enough lamb to cover the base of the dish - this makes a large meal for us two!
- Salt and pepper the lamb.
- Then cube feta cheese and sprinkle over the top.
- Thinly slice the tomatoes and layer over the top so that the dish is covered.
- Sprinkle on dried herbs.
- Sprinkle over the olive oil.
- Bake in the oven for 60 to 90 mins (we normally go for 90) at Gas mark 5 or 190°C.
- Half way through the baking time take the dish out and use a baster to draw out the juices at the bottom of the dish and squirt on the top.
