Re: slow cooked lamb
Hi Foodie-Gill!
I cooked some Greek style meatballs today, with minced lamb, fetta and pinenuts, cinamon, allspice etc - With them I served a delicious barley, pomegranate and parsley salad - just cook the barley in water for about half an hour - then drizzle with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and give it a stir. Then when cold, add pomegranate, lots of chopped parsley and a little balsamic vinaigrette - give it a toss, and Bob's your uncle! Everyone loved it!
I'm sure your lamb will be delicious

Re: slow cooked lamb
I'm going to do a recipe from the current Waitrose magazine for a slow roast lamb with asparagus pilaff rice. I needed to buy some sumac which I've never tried before. The recipe looks gorgeous so I shall report back after Sunday's meal.
Re: slow cooked lamb
I only tried sumac for the first time relatively recently, and was not really knocked out, it was sort of vaguely like powdered tamarind, but not so tart. I guess if anyone reads this and suggests a recipe that they are confident it really shines in, I will be happy to give it another chance! I also have a bottle of that pomegranate molasses gathering dust in the Mediterranean section of my storecupboard
Re: slow cooked lamb
Hi Sakkarin. this recipe is worth trying, the pomegranate molasses are good in it and last time I made it, I sprinkled over some sumac. I also sprinkle sumac over hummas and baba ghanoush. I think it has a slight lemony flavour. I got to like it when we lived in UAE.

Re: slow cooked lamb
Hi Sakkarin!
I sort of agree with you about Sumac, although I find when I use quite a lot of it it packs a bit more flavour - but you are right, it is quite like a slightly limp version of tamarind - which I adore!
Lots of recipes in Ottolenghi and in Selvana Rowe's book - Orient Express - infact I think she has a whole chapter dedicated to it.
I quite often sprinkle quite a wodge of it on roast chicken. It does intensify slightly when roasted. Slightly a case of 'the Emperor's new cloths' possibly??
