Dry Fried Green Beans With Lamb Recipes

LUBEE (LEBANESE GREEN BEANS AND LAMB)

Steps:

• Heat butter and olive oil in frying pan over medium-high heat. Add lamb and onions and cook until lamb begins to brown and onion begins to turn translucent.
• Stir in garlic, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low.
• Stir in green beans. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce and water. Cover pan and cook over low heat about 1 hour, or until lamb is tender.
• Serve over cooked rice.

SYRIAN LAMB WITH GREEN BEANS AND RICE

Steps:

• Saute the chops in butter so they are brown on both sides. Add the onion, garlic, bay leaf, red pepper and seasoning and cook for 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of water and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the green beans and tomatoes. Cover and cook for 1 hour on a medium fire checking occasionally to be sure the lamb mixture is not boiling too rapidly. The beans will be cooked more than we are used to but they will be bathed in the lamb tomato mixture which is divine.
• For the rice pilaf: In the melted butter saute the vermicelli, bay leaf, and red pepper until the noodles are golden. Watch carefully and add the garlic so it sautes too. Noodles should be golden. Be careful not to brown. Add the rice and cook for a minute. When ready to serve add the chicken stock and bring to a gentle boil. Cook for 25 minutes.

SPICE RUBBED LAMB CHOPS WITH GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Bring a saucepan of water to a boil and salt it generously. Add the green beans, and cook until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Just before beans are done toss in the shallots. Drain and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle the beans and shallots with olive oil, lemon juice, pine nuts, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Mix the 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon together. Brush each lamb chop lightly with the olive oil and season with the spice mixture. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chops in the skillet, without crowding until brown and crisp on both sides, about 3 or 4 minutes for both sides. Finish chops in the oven for 1 minute for medium rare, or to desired doneness. Place the lamb chops around the beans and serve.
