Lamb Fricassee image

This is an adopted recipe. I tried it out with my family and they love it! It was much simpler to make than I thought it would be with a lamb recipe. Fricassee is pronounced free-cah-seh and it means a stew made with spinach, lemon, eggs and oil. This is a Greek dish.

Time 1h5m

Yield 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs leg of lamb
3 lbs green onions, chopped
2 -3 heads lettuce, chopped (dandelions work best if you can find them)
1/2 scoop butter
salt and pepper
2 eggs
1 lemon, juice of
flour

Steps:

  • Cut the lamb in portions.
  • Melt a tablespoon of butter in a pot and brown the lamb in it.
  • Strain excess fat. Take out the lamb.
  • Add the rest of the butter, salt& pepper, the lettuce, the onions and the lamb.
  • Cover and simmer for about 1 hours Stir.
  • Don't fret about not having any water in the stew. The veggies will provide it as they cook.
  • Prepare the avgolemono sauce, by beating together the eggs, lemon juice and flour (I use about 2 tsp).
  • Just before serving, pour the avgolemono in the pot, simmer lightly and serve hot.
  • Note: With 2 - 3 (2 - 3 lbs) heads of lettuce and 3 lbs of green onions, you will need a pretty big pot to hold all the chopped veggies. These will cook down to half the raw amount.
