Ingredients
Scale
Lamb
- 1½ lb (680 g) lamb
- 4 tablespoons (½ stick or 50 g) butter
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) rice
- Salt
- Pepper
Yogurt sauce
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 4 tablespoons (½ stick or 50 g) butter
- 2 lb (900 g) yogurt
- 5 eggs
- Salt
- Pepper
Directions
- Cut meat into 4 serving pieces, and sprinkle each piece with salt and pepper. Bake in a moderately-heated oven with half the butter, basting the meat with its gravy now and then.
- When meat is half-baked, add rice. Remove the baking pan from the oven and leave it aside while you prepare the yogurt sauce.
- Sauté flour in butter until mixed thoroughly. Mix yogurt with salt, pepper and eggs until a uniform mixture is obtained, and finally stir in the flour-butter mix. Put the sauce mixture in the baking pan; stir it with the meat pieces.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 45 minutes. Serve hot.
