Cypriot Slowed Cooked Lamb/Goat

This is a recipe from a friends Cypriot Nanna – sorry don’t remember the proper name for it. This is just 1 version often the main spice is cumin but I like this version best. The family had an outside traditional wood burning oven so she would usually make 3-4 legs of meat at a time and invite friends and family over. I have cut it down to serve 6. If using goat you may need 2 legs as kid legs are usually only small. I don’t know whether the addition of the cheese was a family querk but that is how she made it. I have been told by other Cypriots that adding the cheese is not right.

Greek Cypriot Salad

This is a bit different than your normal Greek Salad in that it uses lambs lettuce and coriander for the salad leaves. You can add other ingredients if you wish or use lemon juice instead of vinegar.
