Number Of Ingredients 28

1/2 cup chopped yellow onions
1/2 cup diced peeled sweet potatoes
1/2 cup chopped carrots
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 pounds lamb fillet, shoulder or leg, trimmed of fat and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon Essence, recipe follows
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup peeled, seeded, and shopped Italian plum tomatoes (1 or 2 tomatoes)
1 tablespoon herbes de Provence, recipe follows
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup dry red wine
3 cups lamb stock, or beef stock, or canned, low-sodium beef broth
French or Italian bread, accompaniment
1/4 cup dried thyme
1/4 cup dried majoram
1/4 cup dried savory
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried lavender blossoms
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • Season the meat with the Essence and use your hands to coat the meat thoroughly. In a large dutch oven or saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned lamb and cook, stirring, until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate, and set aside.
  • To the fat in the pan, add the onions, potatoes, and carrots, and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, herbs, salt, pepper, and red wine, and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes, stirring to deglaze the pan. Add the lamb and stock to the pan and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the lamb is tender, about 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and adjust the seasoning, to taste. Ladle into soup bowls and serve with hot, crusty French or Italian bread.
  • Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Store in an airtight container and use as needed.
  • Place all the ingredients in a bowl and stir well to combine thoroughly. Store in an airtight container and use as needed.

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (6- to 7-pound) bone-in leg of lamb, trimmed and tied
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons chopped garlic (9 cloves), divided
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 pounds ripe red tomatoes, cored and 1-inch-diced
1/2 cup good olive oil
1/2 cup good honey, divided
1 large Spanish onion, sliced
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary plus branch of rosemary for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the leg of lamb in a large roasting pan fat side up and pat it dry with paper towels. Combine the mustard, 1 tablespoon of the garlic, the rosemary, balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a mini food processor and pulse until the garlic and rosemary are minced. Spread the mixture on the lamb.
  • Place the tomatoes, olive oil, 1/4 cup of the honey, the onion, the remaining 2 tablespoons garlic, 2 tablespoons salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper in a bowl and toss well. Pour the tomato mixture around the lamb and tuck in the thyme and rosemary sprigs. Drizzle the lamb with the remaining 1/4 cup of honey.
  • Roast for 20 minutes. Turn the heat down to 350 degrees F and roast for another 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until a meat thermometer registers 130 to 135 degrees F for medium-rare. Place the lamb on a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Discard the herb stems and return the tomatoes to the oven to keep warm. Slice the lamb, arrange on a platter, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve with the tomatoes and pan juices spooned on top. Garnish with a branch of rosemary.

1/2 cup good honey (see note), divided
