KAPAMAS - LAMB IN AROMATIC TOMATO SAUCE



Kapamas - Lamb In Aromatic Tomato Sauce image

Kapama is the name given to many different aromatic meat stews in Greece. This particular recipe is from Evia, and I've included two of the island's major agricultural products, figs and green olives. It's a great Sunday meal.

Number Of Ingredients 17

¼ cup olive oil
2 ½ pounds lean lamb (preferably leg or shoulder, cut into stewing cubes)
2 large white onions (peeled and finely chopped)
¼ cup brandy
2 cups peeled (seeded, and finely chopped tomatoes (with juice))
6 to 8 allspice berries
2 medium bay leaves
1 cinnamon stick
Salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste)
¼ cup chopped parsley
1 cup dried Greek figs
1 cup green or black Greek olives (rinsed)
1 cup basmati rice
2 ½ cups water
1 large pinch saffron ((Greek krokos Kozanis))
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • In a large heavy stewing pot, heat olive oil and cook lamb, turning it frequently on all sides to brown evenly and lightly. Add the onion and sauté, stirring with a wooden spoon, until wilted.
  • "Extinguish" the pot, as the Greeks say -- deglaze, in other words -- with the brandy by pouring it into the pot. Add the tomatoes, allspice, bay leaves, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Stir well with a wooden spoon to blend. Add, if necessary, enough water just to cover the meat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 1 hour 15 minutes, or until meat is almost cooked. Add more water, if necessary, during cooking to keep mixture moist and sauce from reducing too much.
  • About 10 minutes before meat is done, Adjust seasoning if necessary, and stir in the parsley just before removing from heat. Serve with saffron rice.

Time 2h35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound lamb shoulder blade chops
salt and pepper to taste
1 large onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup dry red wine
2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 cup lamb stock
½ lemon, zested and juiced
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 bay leaf
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Season the lamb with salt and pepper, add to the pot, and cook until deeply browned, about 5 minutes on each side. Stir in the onions and garlic, and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
  • Pour the wine into the pot, and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, lamb stock, lemon zest and juice, oregano, cinnamon, and bay leaf. Bring back to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the lamb is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Stir in the green beans and cook until they are tender, about 20 additional minutes.
  • Remove the bay leaf and any bones from the stew. Garnish stew with chopped fresh parsley.

If spring is in the air you don't want to be slaving over a hot oven, so make the most of seasonal lamb the easy way with this lazy roast

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large leg of lamb, about 3kg/6lb 8oz
6 garlic cloves
1 bunch oregano
zest and juice 1 lemon
6 tbsp olive oil
1 ½kg new potatoes
400g can chopped tomato
large handful pitted baby kalamata olives

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 240C/fan 220C/gas 9. Pound the garlic, half the oregano, lemon zest and a pinch of salt in a pestle and mortar, then add the lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Stab the lamb all over with a sharp knife, then push as much of the herb paste as you can into the holes.
  • Tip the potatoes into a large roasting tin, then toss in the remaining olive oil and any remaining herb paste. Nestle the lamb amongst the potatoes, roast for 20 mins, then reduce the temperature to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Roast for 1 hr 15 mins for medium-rare, adding another 15 mins if you prefer your lamb medium. Baste the lamb once or twice with the juices and toss the potatoes. When the lamb is done to your liking, remove from the tin and let it rest. Throw the rest of the oregano in with the potatoes, scoop from the tin and keep warm.
  • Place the roasting tin over a medium flame, add the canned tomatoes and olives to the pan juices, then simmer for a few mins. Serve the lamb with the potatoes and sauce and a simple salad.
