Slow-roasted Middle Eastern-style lamb leg

Slow-Roasted Middle Eastern-Style Lamb Leg

Leg of lamb

cm Fresh ginger, crushed

Garlic, crushed

Fresh coriander, chopped

Lemon, rind and juice

Tbsp Olive oil

Water

tsp Black pepper

tsp Ground cloves

tsp Ground cumin

Fennel seeds

tsp Ground cinnamon

Tbsp Paprika

Salt

Lebanese cucumber

Plain unsweetened yoghurt

Flaky sea salt

Mint leaves

Sumac powder

120 g Tomatoes, chopped

Tomato paste

Harissa paste

Score the surface of the lamb with a sharp knife, making 2cm slits in the fat and skin.

Put the ginger, garlic, coriander, lemon rind and juice and oil in a small bowl and mix well. Add the spice mix ingredients and stir in.

Rub the marinade over the surface of the lamb, working it into the cuts. Leave it at room temperature for an hour or refrigerate overnight so the flavours are absorbed.

Put the lamb into a roasting pan with 2 cups of water, cover with foil, then roast for about 3½ hours or until the meat is very tender.

Baste often with the liquid in the pan. Remove the foil, then increase the heat a little for 20-30 minutes so the skin becomes crisp. Remove from the oven and rest the meat before slicing.

Serve with Middle Eastern-style flat bread and the accompaniments listed below.

Peel the cucumber lightly and cut into thin strips. Place these in a small serving bowl and toss well with the yoghurt and salt.

Add the mint leaves and gently toss through so that they are just mixed but not drowned by the yoghurt. Sprinkle the sumac over the top and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

Easy Buttermilk Biscuits

White Lily Self-Rising Flour

unsalted butter

cultured nonfat buttermilk

unsalted butter, melted

Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a baking pan with a silicone baking mat or a piece of parchment paper.

In a large bowl, measure the flour by spooning it into a dry measuring cup and leveling it off.

Next, cut the butter into the flour. Do this by using a pastry blender to cut the butter into pieces the size of a small pea. Or freeze the butter and grate it on a box grater then stir the flour and grated butter together.

Add the buttermilk and stir until just combined. The dough should be like thick mashed potatoes, but not too sticky.  Add a little more flour if too sticky, or a little more buttermilk if it won&#x27;t hold together.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it a few times if it&#x27;s not holding together too well.  Flatten the dough out into a rectangle and fold it over on itself in a tri-fold fashion. This helps to create those flaky layers.  Continue lightly dusting the dough and the counter with flour to keep things from sticking. Then flatten it out into a rectangle again and tri-fold once more.  You&#x27;ll want to do this about 3 times.

Finally, flatten the dough out into a rectangle that&#x27;s about 3/4 to 1-inch thick and use a floured, sharp 2 to 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter to cut the dough out using a quick up and down motion - being sure not to twist the cutter.  Transfer the biscuits to the prepared baking pan, placing them nearly touching for soft, tender edges or farther apart for crunchier edges.

Rework the dough and flatten it out to cut more biscuits out. You should get between 10 and 12 biscuits.  Brush the tops with the melted butter and bake for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

brown sugar

vanilla extract

8-oz tubs cool whip, divided

(10-ounce) package Lorna Doone Shortbread Cookies

Preheat the oven to 350°. Crush the Lorna Doone cookies and reserve about 1/2 cup of the crumbs for the topping. Mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter. Press them into the bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Bake for 5 minutes and then cool completely.

In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 1 container of the thawed whipped topping by stirring by hand. Once thoroughly mixed, spread the mixture over the cooled crust.

Drop dollops of the blueberry pie filling over the cream cheese layer and spread carefully. Sprinkle pecans over the pie filling. Top with the remaining container of whipped topping and sprinkle with the reserved crushed cookies. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

Chocolate Chip Biscuits

unsalted butter,

mini chocolate chips

heavy cream

In a large bowl, measure the flour by spooning it into a dry measuring cup and leveling it off. Add the sugar and whisk together.

Next, cut the butter into the flour. Do this by using a pastry blender to cut the butter into pieces the size of a small pea. Or freeze the butter and grate it on a box grater then stir the flour and grated butter together. Add the chocolate chips and stir to combine.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it a few times if it&#039;s not holding together well.  Flatten the dough out into a rectangle and fold it over on itself in a tri-fold fashion. This helps to create those flaky layers.  Continue lightly dusting the dough and the counter with flour to keep things from sticking. Then flatten it out into a rectangle again and tri-fold once more.  You&#039;ll want to do this about 3 times.

In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar, vanilla, and 3 tablespoons of heavy cream. Stir to combine. Add additional heavy cream to get the mixture thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle over warm biscuits.

To make the drizzle:

Zaatar and feta pinwheels

Butter

Za'atar,

Tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

g Feta, Crumbled (Main)

Egg, Lightly beaten

Tbsp Parmesan cheese, Grated

½ tsp Sumac powder, Optional

In a bowl mix the za'atar and the olive oil and keep aside.

Take each sheet of puff pastry (lightly thawed till it is pliable). Place on work bench and apply about 1-1/2 to 2 tbsp of the za'atar mixture. Spread / brush evenly in a thin layer. Leave 1 cm of one end of the pastry uncovered.

Sprinkle ½ a portion of the crumbled feta cheese on top of the za'atar. Brush the uncovered portion of the pastry with a little water. Roll the pastry to form a log.

Repeat with the 2nd sheet of puff pastry.

Wrap the za'atar rolls in cling wrap or the plastic that separates each sheet of pastry and keep in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes. This allows the pastry to firm up and makes it easier to cut.

Preheat your oven to 200 deg C. fan (Refer to package instructions for temperature and cooking time).

Remove the rolls from the fridge and cut in ½ "rings. (I get 18 pinwheels per sheet).

Place the pinwheels on your baking trays lined with baking paper. Lightly brush egg over the pinwheels.

Mix the sumac and grated parmesan together. Sprinkle a wee bit over each pinwheel. Put the trays in the oven to bake (should take around 15-20 minutes).

Remove from oven and cool on a cake rack. Store in an airtight container once cool.
