GREEK YOGURT-HONEY BRAISED LAMB
From: New York's 25: Taste Of Greece - Oct 16-Nov 18, 2006 "Greek cuisine is truly a natural cuisine. It exemplifies garden to table cooking," says chef Marc Meyer. He says he "loves" Greek yogurt. "I've always been fascinated by the fact that its use runs the gamut from sweet to savory. In the States we think of yogurt as a sweet or a bedtime snack. But it makes a great sauce or marinade and I wanted to incorporate it in that way." - Chef Marc Meyer of Five Points

Steps:
- Place the garlic, rosemary, oregano, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse until the herbs are finely minced. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, and red wine and combine. Place the chops in a glass or ceramic dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer. Pour the marinade over the chops, turning to coat both sides. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight.
- When ready to cook, prepare a grill with one layer of hot coals or turn a gas grill to medium-high heat. Remove the lamb from the marinade, sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, and grill for 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove to a platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and set aside to rest for 10 minutes. Serve hot with the cold Yogurt Mint Sauce.
- Place the scallions, mint, dill, red pepper flakes, olive oil, and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and puree until it's a coarse paste. Add the yogurt, salt, and pepper and pulse until combined. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to develop.

LAMB BRAISED IN YOGURT WITH ONIONS AND TOMATOES
This is a braised version of a traditional Turkish kebab dish. It's adapted from one of my favorite cookbooks, Classical Turkish Cooking: Traditional Turkish Food for the American Kitchen by Ayla Algar. The meat is marinated in yogurt and lemon juice overnight to ensure tenderness. A separate yogurt sauce is used to braise the lamb. The result is very tender meat in a rich, flavorful sauce. Cooking in a wood-fired oven adds a slight smokiness and depth to the onions and tomatoes. Serve this with couscous or rice pilaf.

Steps:
- Put the lamb in a large self-sealing plastic bag. Combine all the ingredients for the marinade and add to the bag. Marinate the lamb for 2 hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator. If refrigerated, let come to room temperature for 30 minutes before proceeding.
- Prepare a medium heat fire (325°F) in a wood-fired oven or cooker.
- Drain the meat and pat dry. Rub it with olive oil and dust with salt and pepper.
- Roast the garlic, tomatoes, and poblano chiles in a dry cast-iron skillet over high heat until the skins are toasted and blistered. Transfer to a plate and let cool to the touch. Peel and seed the tomatoes and chiles. Finely chop all.
- Heat the olive oil in a nonreactive skillet over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the onions, cumin, red pepper flakes, allspice, and ginger and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the chopped vegetables and vinegar, then place the lamb on top of the mixture. Add 1 1/2 cups of the stock. Spoon some of the onion mixture over the lamb. Cover tightly with a lid or aluminum foil and place in the oven to cook for 45 minutes, or until the vegetables have melted slightly.
- In a separate bowl, combine the drained yogurt and cornstarch. Stir the remaining stock and the drained yogurt mixture into the lamb. Cover and return to the oven to cook for another 30 minutes, or until the lamb is fork-tender. The sauce will look curdled at this point. Transfer the lamb to a plate and use a hand blender to smooth the sauce, then return to medium heat, uncovered, to thicken, about 15 minutes. Add the braised lamb, cover with some of the sauce and return to the oven, uncovered, to heat through.
- Serve the lamb hot over couscous, topped with the sauce and garnished with parsley.
