MYRA WALDO'S SWEDISH LAMB



Myra Waldo's Swedish Lamb image

Craig Claiborne brought this marvelous dinner-party centerpiece to The Times in 1958, after securing it from Myra Waldo, a globetrotting food and travel writer who edited "The Complete Round-the-World Cookbook," featuring recipes gathered by Pan American Airways. Mr. Claiborne recommended this one in a column in the newspaper four years later: a leg of lamb roasted above carrots and onions, broth, hot coffee, cream and a sprinkling of sugar. Really! The result on the plate is remarkable in the way the richness of the sauce mingles with the big taste of the lamb. All we needed to do to improve it was exchange the beef broth Claiborne used (too tinny in flavor) for some of the low-sodium chicken variety. (Sam Sifton)

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 21

cooking spray
1 cup fresh bread crumbs
¾ cup milk
1 pound lean ground beef
½ pound lean ground pork
½ cup finely chopped onion
½ cup finely chopped fresh parsley
¼ cup finely chopped celery
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup reduced-fat sour cream
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
¼ teaspoon lemon zest
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a baking rack on top. Spray the baking rack with cooking spray.
  • Combine bread crumbs and milk in a large bowl. Allow bread crumbs to soak up the milk for about 10 minutes. Mix in ground beef, ground pork, onion, parsley, celery, egg, garlic, sugar, salt, and pepper until combined; mixture will be fairly wet. Shape into 36 meatballs with a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop. Place meatballs on the prepared baking rack.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 18 minutes.
  • While the meatballs are baking, melt butter for sauce in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce until smooth. Cook, stirring often, until slightly thickened, about 12 minutes.
  • Remove meatballs from the oven and add to the sauce mixture. Simmer for 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream, dill, and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

LAMB STEW WITH DILL



Lamb Stew with Dill image

Lamb stew is a quintessential spring dish that can be a real celebration-or unbearably heavy. The difference has little to do with the lamb and much to do with the vegetables: If the stew sports color and lots of different flavors, it is lovely, almost light. If, on the other hand, it contains little besides lamb and potatoes, it becomes the cafeteria-style "Irish stew" that gave the dish a bad name in the first place. This is how it's done in Scandinavia-bright, colorful, and fresh tasting. In other parts of northern Europe, parsley might be substituted for the dill; it's just as good. Other cuts of meat you can use here: beef chuck or brisket (which will require somewhat longer cooking time), veal shoulder.

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons butter or extra virgin olive oil
2 pounds boneless lamb shoulder, cut into roughly 1 1/2-inch chunks
8 shallots, peeled
8 to 12 very small waxy potatoes, washed
Salt and black pepper
2 carrots, diced into roughly pea-size bits, optional
1 cup green peas (frozen are okay)
8 scallions, trimmed and sliced, optional
1/2 cup snipped dill leaves, or more to taste
Lemon wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Put the butter in a wide skillet with a lid and place over high heat. When the butter foam subsides, add the lamb, a little at a time. Let sear, undisturbed, for about 2 minutes, or until the underside is nicely browned. Stir, then add the shallots and potatoes. Let cook for another couple of minutes, then add the salt, pepper, and a cup of water. Stir, scraping the bottom if necessary to loosen any bits of meat that may have stuck. Turn the heat to low, cover, and let the mixture simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring once or twice during that period.
  • Uncover and add the carrots if you're using them; stir once and simmer for about 15 minutes more, or until the lamb and potatoes are tender.
  • Uncover and add the peas and scallions. Raise the heat if necessary to boil away excess liquid. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then serve, garnished with the dill and accompanied by a lemon wedge.

LAMB STEW WITH TURNIPS AND SWEDES

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds boneless lamb shoulder
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 medium onions, peeled and quartered, or 12 baby onions
1 leek, white and light green, coarsely chopped
5 swedes (rutabagas), peeled and quartered
2 turnips, peeled and cut into eighths
2 1/2 cups lamb stock or water
12 baby red-skinned potatoes
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Cut the shoulder meat into 1 1/4-inch cubes and trim off the large chunks of fat. Place the fat in a heavy pan or Dutch oven over medium low heat and cook until the fat runs out, about 5 minutes. Discard any solid bits of fat that remain.
  • Season the meat with salt and pepper and add to the hot fat. Brown meat on all sides, working in batches if necessary, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer browned meat to a casserole. Add the onions, leeks, swedes, and turnips to the pot, season with salt and pepper, and brown lightly in the fat. Add the vegetables to the casserole. Pour the stock into the pan, bring to a boil, and stir to dissolve the caramelized bits. Pour into the casserole. Lay the potatoes over the vegetables in the casserole, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil over the stove.
  • Cover the casserole, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the lamb is tender and vegetables are cooked, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour.
  • When stew is cooked, pour off cooking liquid into a clean saucepan. Skim off any excess fat and bring liquid to a simmer. In another saucepan, make a roux by melting the butter, then whisking in the flour until it forms a smooth paste. Cook roux over low heat for 2 minutes. Add roux to cooking liquid, whisking until thickened slightly. Add parsley and chives, taste for seasoning, and pour back over casserole. Bring casserole back up to a simmer and serve immediately.

3 tablespoons butter mixed with 3 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 carrot, sliced
1 onion, sliced (optional)

  • Remove the roast to a platter and keep it warm. Strain the pan liquid and skim off the fat. Make a roux (1 tablespoon fat and 1 tablespoon flour for each cup of liquid), cook it briefly, add the liquid to it, whisk till smooth, boil till thickened and simmer 10 minutes. Pass the sauce with the sliced lamb.

1 cup peeled 1/4-inch cubes Yukon Gold potatoes (from 1 medium potato)
2 pounds boneless leg of lamb, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 yellow onions, thinly sliced
2 carrots, sliced 1/4-inch-thick
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon white peppercorns
1 tablespoon yellow mustard seeds
1 teaspoon whole coriander
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons katjap manis
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
Coarse salt

Steps:

  • Place Jerusalem artichokes and potatoes in a large pot of salted water; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Place lamb in a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality lamb for the best flavor. Look for lamb that is well-marbled and has a bright red color.
  • Brown the lamb in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure even cooking.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven for the stew to distribute heat evenly and prevent scorching.
  • Add vegetables to the stew in stages, starting with those that take longer to cook, such as carrots and potatoes.
  • Use a good quality beef broth or stock for the stew. You can also use water, but the broth will add more flavor.
  • Season the stew with salt and pepper to taste, and add other spices and herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, or bay leaves, for additional flavor.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour, or until the lamb is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
  • Serve the stew with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish.

Conclusion:
