LAMB SHANKS & ORZO
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- Combine the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a bowl and dredge the lamb shanks in the mixture, shaking off the excess. In a large (13-inch) Dutch oven such as Le Creuset, heat 3 tablespoons of the grapeseed oil over medium-high heat. Add 2 lamb shanks and cook for 10 minutes, turning every few minutes, until browned on all sides. Transfer the shanks to a plate, add more grapeseed oil, and brown the remaining 2 shanks.
- Wipe out the Dutch oven with a paper towel, add the olive oil, and heat over medium to medium-high heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, and rosemary and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Add the garlic and cook 1 more minute. Add the tomatoes, beef broth, wine, 4 teaspoons salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper. Add the lamb shanks, arranging them so they're almost completely submerged in the liquid. Tuck in the bay leaves and bring to a simmer on top of the stove. Cover the pot and place it in the oven for 2 hours, turning the shanks once while they cook.
- Stir in the orzo and return the lamb shanks to the oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until the orzo is cooked and the lamb shanks are very tender. Discard the bay leaves, stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons of white wine, and taste the orzo for seasonings. Serve hot.
GREEK LAMB BAKED IN CLAY POTS
This method of roasting meat in clay pots or water jugs was used by women during the Greek War of Independance to surreptitously bake and bring food to their soliders in the mountains. Any clay or earthen cookware will do. I use individual serving size clay bowls.

Steps:
- For the dough:.
- Note--Make enough dough to cover the clay pot(s). I double or triple the recipe depending on how many clay bowls I need to cover.
- Place flour in a bowl and mix in salt and sugar. Make a well in the center and add water. Mix together until dough is formed. Knead for 3-5 minutes. Cover and set aside until ready to use.
- When ready, roll out dough on floured surface. Make sure the dough is large enough to cover the opening of the clay dish with at least 2 inches over hang. I divide the dough into the number of bowls I need to cover and roll out each separately.
- For the filling:.
- In a large bowl mix all ingredients except feta.
- Transfer to clay pot(s) and top with feta.
- Gently cover the container(s) and seal around the edge with your finger. A little water helps.
- Place baking dish(s) on lowest rack in cold oven and turn heat to 275. Bake for 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
- Turn off oven, open door, and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before removing.
- Serve hot.

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.

- Marinating the lamb is the most important part of any kleftiko recipe. You want to start this the day before you plan to eat it so the flavors are well blended. Chop the lamb into bite size chunks (if you got bone in keep the bone there as well) and place into a large bowl. Add the chopped onion, garlic, mustard, olive oil, white wine, oregano, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Seal the bowl and place in the fridge for at least 12 hours.
- After the meat is done marinating in the bowl, add the large chopped potatoes and place into a large baking bowl. Traditionally this recipe calls for clay pots, but as that's not so common these days, I recommend a cast iron enameled cocotte like my Emile Henry Flame Red Cocotte, or something from Le Creuset. Place the pot on the stove top starting with a very low flame, and slowly increase it until the liquid starts to boil. Give everything in the pot/cocotte a good stir and place down the lid. Put in an oven pre-heated to 150 degrees Celsius for 2 hours and 15 minutes.
- When the lamb stew is finished you can go straight to the finishing of it, or leave it in the pot for later usage. The lamb stew will keep for two days in the cocotte in the fridge.
- When ready to make the kleftiko, take the lamb stew and place a good amount of it into a baking dish. You can go big for a large sharing portion, or small for individual. Either way, lay down the lamb stew and cover with a layer of filo pastry. As I don't like to make my own filo, I feel frozen is perfectly acceptable. Make sure the edges are completely sealed and place the dishes into an oven pre-heated to 175 Celsius for 15 minutes (or following the instructions on your packet of filo pastry.
