CRISP LAMB WITH YOGURT AND SCALLIONS



Crisp Lamb With Yogurt and Scallions image

Here, a lamb breast cooked into tender excellence in the oven, under a sheet of aluminum foil, its skin rubbed with garlic, rosemary and mint. The result is cooled, its flavors concentrating overnight. To serve, the home cook cuts the meat from the bone, then sears it. The crisp surface of the meat gives way to soft, luscious lamb within, strong-flavored and salty-sweet. Citrus-flecked yogurt only slightly thinned by olive oil provides cool contrast, its creamy brightness melting against the flesh. Wilted scallions add a vegetal note, slightly acid, percussion in a love song.

Time 3h30m

Yield 4-6 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 head garlic, peeled
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely minced
3 tablespoons fresh mint, finely minced
Freshly ground black pepper
1 lamb breast (approximately 3 pounds)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup thick, Greek-style yogurt or goat yogurt
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh mint, finely minced
4 teaspoons lemon zest
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Smoked paprika to taste
5 bunches scallions
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon white balsamic vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Using a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic and salt into a paste. Gradually mix in the olive oil. Stir in the herbs and pepper.
  • Fit the lamb into a roasting pan big enough to contain it. Smear it thoroughly with the paste, and place it ribs-side down in pan. Cover tightly with foil, and roast until it reaches an internal temperature of 170 degrees, 2 to 3 hours, depending on size of breast. Meat should be wobbly but not falling apart. Allow to cool, then cover and rest in the refrigerator overnight.
  • The next day, prepare the sauce. Whisk 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the yogurt. Then the lemon juice. Stir in mint, lemon zest and salt. Before serving, drizzle sauce with remaining tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with pepper and a pinch of paprika to taste.
  • Light your grill, or place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cut the breast and ribs away from the bone that runs lengthwise between them. Cut the breast into half-inch slices that resemble thick-cut bacon, and separate the ribs. Reserve fat from the roasting pan. Cook a few pieces of lamb at a time on fairly high heat, until browned and crispy on both sides, approximately 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Brush the onions with some of the lamb fat. Place them on the grill or on a pan under a preheated broiler. Cook them, turning once or twice, until flimsy and slightly charred. Remove them to a large bowl and dress with the vinegar and salt and pepper to taste.
