Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 sheep's feet
Rind of 1/2 lemon
2 large cloves garlic
Salt and pepper
6 thin slices bread, crusts removed, toasted
2 cups plain whole-milk yogurt
2 cloves garlic, crushed
Salt and white pepper
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

Scrub the feet thoroughly. In a large pan, blanch them in boiling water for 5 minutes and throw out the scum with the water.
Cover with fresh water, and add the lemon rind, garlic, salt, and pepper. Bring to the boil and simmer for 3-4 hours, until the meat is practically falling off the bones.
Lay the slices of toast in one layer in a large shallow ovenproof dish, and moisten well with stock from the feet. Extract the feet and bone them, arranging the meat on top of the soaked toast. Sprinkle on more stock if the dish seems too dry (reserving some for the garnish), cover, and keep warm, or reheat when ready to serve.
Prepare the garnish when ready to serve. Beat the yogurt with a few tablespoons of stock, the garlic, salt, and white pepper. Melt the butter in a small saucepan and add paprika.
Remove the dish from the oven and serve smothered with the yogurt and sprinkled with a trickle of red paprika butter.
