I saw that recipe somewhere recently (a magazine?) and wanted to make it.
However, I’m off wheat now (not celiac but low fermentable carb) and will look for a substitute made with rice or something I can have, dammit.

It’s from a recent Cook’s Illustrated - and really good and quite easy to make
Perhaps that would help

My Greek Easter saw a lamb shank braised in tomato and red wine. In the pan:

Plated, over orzo cooked in the braising liquid, with grated romano.

Another pizza Margherita. Are you bored yet . Lol .
The third cook on the new oven . I slightly under cooked it. I tossed some Agostino Recca anchovies on it .


. Still soft and crunchy. 63 % hydration. 48 hour fermentation in the fridge.
And for the rest of the week . Sautéed bacon not browned. Yellow onion cut into big pieces cooked in that bacon fat . Meanwhile parboiling a whole peeled russet al dente . Then cut into large pieces .
Put into a casserole dish mixed with a large handful of cut green cabbage. Olive oil and dijon mustard added . Cover with foil and cook at 400 degrees for about a hour . Have with your favorite protein .Cheers

That’s a beautiful hunka meat. Kinda like a deconstructed yuvetsi?

Sorry I couldn’t get it restored. Glad you had it saved from elsewhere!

Last night was quickie chicken potstickers and broccolini with ginger, garlic, and sesame flashed with hot oil and dressed with diluted soy sauce. So good! I had mine with leftover sushi rice and just a couple dumplings.

Cookies and cream ice cream for dessert.

It’s exactly a deconstructed yuvetsi!

The meat was a little tough, though. Either because it was overcooked, or because it was “grass fed”.

Oh, that’s a shame. My PIC makes yuvetsi a few times every winter, and braises the shanks low and slow. We get a 1/2 lamb every fall - pretty sure it’s pasture-raised.

This was braised at 275F for three hours. I’ve never seen this before with lamb shanks. They’ve always come out fork-tender.

Hmm. Maybe it’s the lamb. I just checked and we do 4-5 hrs at 375F in a DO.

In any event, yours looks polí oraya, and makes me crave Greek food something fierce. Thank goodness we’re in Berlin :partying_face:

Oh thank you!!

FODMAP is another name, sorta.
