7
ingredients
- 907.18 g leg of lamb
- 1360.77 g green onions, chopped
- 2-3 head lettuce, chopped (dandelions work best if you can find them)
- 1 scoop butter
- salt and pepper
-
Avgolemono Sauce
- 2 eggs
- 1 lemon, juice of
- flour
directions
- Cut the lamb in portions.
- Melt a tablespoon of butter in a pot and brown the lamb in it.
- Strain excess fat. Take out the lamb.
- Add the rest of the butter, salt& pepper, the lettuce, the onions and the lamb.
- Cover and simmer for about 1 hours Stir.
- Don't fret about not having any water in the stew. The veggies will provide it as they cook.
- Prepare the avgolemono sauce, by beating together the eggs, lemon juice and flour (I use about 2 tsp).
- Just before serving, pour the avgolemono in the pot, simmer lightly and serve hot.
- Note: With 2 - 3 (2 - 3 lbs) heads of lettuce and 3 lbs of green onions, you will need a pretty big pot to hold all the chopped veggies. These will cook down to half the raw amount.

Hey Everyone! Greetings from Sunny Singapore! I'm am so glad to have found this site. It is waaaayyy better than other sites I've been.
I have about 240 cookbooks and my faves are the older cookbooks I got from my mom as I prefer from scratch cooking.
I have created several cookbooks dedicated to the use of eggs. I have come across a number of recipes requests for using up lots of eggs. So there they are.

The above is a picture of me at my office's Annual Christmas cum costume party. I won first prize with that orange costume! The one with the (fake) Tattoos was taken in Dec 2007 when I again won first prize.
I love spicy food and the many different kinds of chilli dips different foods calls for!!
Love baking, cross stitching, trying my hand now in shoe beading and patchwork and now doing a course on aromatherapy. Oh and am now trying to raise a flower and herb garden but it is not easy as I am a newbie at that too!
In some of my recipes, you will note that there is a letter in brackets at the beginning of the name. This is what it means :
(A) : Aromatherapy/Homeopathic/Less toxic
I'm not crazy about recipes using pre-mix cakes as I am a more from-scratch person. My recipes will have the local name (when applicable) as well as the anglicised name, eg "Au Nee (Sweet Yam Paste).
If I had a month off, I'd be in Texas.
