SPICY LAMB PATTIES WITH CAULIFLOWER-ALMOND RICE



Spicy Lamb Patties with Cauliflower-Almond Rice image

Use the spices normally found in merguez lamb sausage to make these paleo-friendly ground lamb patties. Harissa, a spicy tomato-pepper paste, adds both heat and flavor to the lamb. Finely chopped cauliflower "rice" is livened up with lemon juice, plumped golden raisins, parsley and blanched almonds.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound ground lamb
2 teaspoons harissa paste
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon hot paprika
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Pinch ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup golden raisins
1 large head cauliflower, cut in 2-inch florets (about 2 1/2 pounds)
1/3 cup sliced toasted almonds
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • For the patties: Combine the lamb, harissa, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper and garlic in a bowl and mix well by hand. Form into eight 1/2-inch-thick patties (3 to 4 inches across).
  • Heat a grill pan over high heat. Grill the patties, working in batches if necessary, until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  • For the rice: Combine the raisins and 1 cup of water in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave for 1 minute, then drain and set aside.
  • Place the cauliflower florets in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower resembles small pebbles, 3 or 4 pulses.
  • Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan set over high heat. Add the cauliflower and cook, stirring, until tender, about 2 minutes. The water should be fully evaporated at this point, if not, drain the cauliflower using a fine mesh sieve.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the raisins, almonds, parsley, lemon juice and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the lamb patties over the cauliflower rice.

LAMB WITH CAULIFLOWER



Lamb With Cauliflower image

A very good Indian recipe based on one from Linda Fraser's, The Book of Curries & Indian Foods. I serve this with cooked basmati rice. NOTE: I included the recipe for HOT SPICE MIX because I didn't know the equivalent name for it; please do not add all of it to this dish! It only calls for 2 tablespoons.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Lamb     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Dinner

Yield 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs ground lamb
1 large organic cauliflower
1 large organic yellow onion
3 cloves fresh organic garlic
1/2 cup Tahini
1 tsp cinnamon
Salt to taste
Coarse ground pepper to taste
4 Tbs olive oil
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups beef broth

Steps:

  • Form the ground lamb into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Brown the meatballs in a little olive oil; set aside. Slice the onion thinly and saute in the oil the meatballs were browned in. Add the meatballs to the onion. Add the cinnamon, salt & pepper, beef broth and continue to simmer. Cut the cauliflower into flowerets and small pieces. Saute the garlic and cauliflower in another pan for about 15 minutes until the cauliflower is light to medium brown. Add the cauliflower to the lamb and onion mixture. Mix the tahini and lemon juice in a bowl; the tahini will thicken and fluff up rapidly. Add some of the broth from the lamb, onion and cauliflower mixture and stir into the tahini. Continue adding the broth until the tahini is thin enough, then add the tahini mixture to the lamb, onion and cauliflower. Simmer gently for 10 - 15 minutes.

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups small cauliflower florets
2 4-to 5-ounce lamb shoulder blade chops
2 teaspoons curry powder, divided
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon all purpose flour
1/4 cup low-salt chicken broth
1/4 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons mango chutney
2 large green onions, chopped, divided

Steps:

  • Steam cauliflower until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to bowl; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Sprinkle lamb with salt, pepper, and 3/4 teaspoon curry powder. Heat oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté lamb to desired doneness, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to plates. Pour off oil from skillet.
  • Add 1 1/4 teaspoons curry powder and flour to skillet; whisk 15 seconds. Add broth, cream, and chutney. Boil until thick, whisking, 2 minutes. Add cauliflower and half of green onions; toss to heat through.
  • Spoon curried cauliflower over lamb. Sprinkle with remaining green onions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right lamb cut: For this recipe, a shoulder or leg of lamb works well. These cuts are less expensive and have more flavor than other cuts.
  • Brown the lamb: Browning the lamb before braising it adds flavor and color to the dish. Be sure to brown the lamb in a hot pan so that it gets a good sear.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for cauliflower, carrots, and celery, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include potatoes, parsnips, and turnips.
  • Add some spices: A blend of spices, such as cumin, coriander, and paprika, adds flavor to the braising liquid. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
  • Cook the lamb until it is fall-off-the-bone tender: This will take about 2-3 hours. You can check the lamb by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the meat. If the fork slides in easily, the lamb is done.

Conclusion:

This lamb with cauliflower recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The lamb is tender and flavorful, and the vegetables are cooked to perfection. You can serve this dish with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite bread.
