EASY LAMB MEATBALLS WITH MINT AND TOMATO SAUCE
Steps:
- Remove mint leaves from stems and finely chop. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic clove and set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb (or lamb and beef) with the egg, breadcrumbs, and the chopped mint. Season with salt and pepper. Using your hands, form the lamb mixture into balls, about one-inch in size (2.5 cm).
- Pour the olive oil in a large frying pan, and heat on medium to medium-high heat. Oil should be 1/4 to 1/2-inch in depth. When the oil is hot, add the meatballs and fry, turning over to cook on both sides. This will take 8 to 10 minutes Remove meatballs from pan and allow to drain on a paper towel.
- Using the same frying pan where meatballs were fried, pour off excess oil, leaving a few tablespoons in the bottom of the pan. Add the chopped onion and garlic to the pan, and cook over moderate heat until the onion is translucent about 8 minutes. Add the wine and beef broth. Return the meatballs to the pan. Pour in the tomato sauce. Adjust salt to taste. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Remove the pan from heat and allow the meatballs to sit for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with baguette slices.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Put the lamb into a large ovenproof dish. Pour the oil into a small food processor with the oregano and rosemary leaves and the garlic, then whizz to a rough paste. Season the paste well, rub all over the lamb, then roast for 20 mins. Cover, lower the oven to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2, then roast for a further 3 hrs.
- Remove the lamb from the oven and carefully pour off all the fat, leaving any meat juices in the dish if you can. Pour over the wine and tomatoes, poke in the remaining herb sprigs, then return, uncovered, to the oven for a further 40 mins. The lamb should now be tender enough to cut with a fork or spoon.
- Carefully pour or spoon the wine and tomato sauce into another pan, skimming off any fat that rises to the surface, then re-cover the lamb. Let it rest for up to 30 mins while you roast the potatoes and finish the sauce. Heat the tomato mixture until bubbling, then simmer for 10-15 mins until thickened and saucy. Season with the sugar, and some salt and pepper if it needs it, then pour back around the lamb to serve.

LAMB WITH MINT CHIMICHURRI
Though far less glorified than rib chops or legs, lamb shoulder is explosively delicious and juicy. Like the shoulders of pigs and cows, it is a hardworking muscle rippled with intramuscular fat, which makes it ideal for the stewing or braising that's requisite this times of year. But the shoulder's not that hardworking, which keeps it tender enough to be subjected to the shorter blasts of heat typically reserved for more elegant cuts.

ROAST RACK OF LAMB WITH MINT SAUCE
The lamb that we buy today hardly requires a typical English mint sauce (the puckery flavor was originally designed to cut through the stronger taste of mutton), but the combination is by now a traditional and still-welcome one. Buttered carrots and a watercress salad would complement the lamb nicely. Uncork a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon or red Bordeaux.

LAMB MEATBALLS WITH SPICED TOMATO SAUCE
Here is a recipe from the Los Angeles chef Suzanne Goin that plays to children as well as to the most sophisticated of palates. It is for crisp lamb meatballs cooked through in a fragrant, vaguely North African sauce of tomato sauce zipped up with orange juice and warm spices, then topped with feta and mint. Ms. Goin first served the dish at one of her Los Angeles restaurants, and put it into ''The A.O.C. Cookbook'' (2013), devoted to that restaurant's food. A version of the dish was later introduced to the menu of her children's school. It can be cooked in an hour's time, not all of it busy, and served with pita or plain pasta, bulgur or couscous.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler. In a large bowl, mix together the onion, cream, egg yolks, cinnamon, cumin, red pepper and cayenne. Put the lamb in the bowl, and season it aggressively with salt and pepper. Add the bread crumbs and parsley, and combine the mixture well. Shape the meat into balls that are a little larger than golf balls.
- Grease a baking pan with olive oil, and put the meatballs onto it, spaced evenly. Place beneath the broiler, and cook, turning once or twice, until the meatballs are well browned, approximately 5 to 7 minutes, then set meatballs aside. Turn oven to 400.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce. Pass the tomatoes through a food mill, or whizz them quickly in a food processor. Heat a saucepan over medium-high heat for a minute, then add olive oil, rosemary and red pepper and shake to combine. Cook for another minute, then add onion, thyme, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne and bay leaf and sauté until the onions are translucent, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Add tomatoes, sugar, orange juice and peel, along with salt and pepper.
- Cook for 8 to 10 minutes over medium-low heat, until reduced by a third. Adjust seasoning.
- Pour the tomato sauce into a large baking dish that you can put on the table. Transfer the meatballs to the sauce, putting them about ½ inch from each other. Bake for 15 or 20 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling and the meatballs are cooked through.
- Top with crumbled feta and scattered mint.

Steps:
- Using a sharp knife, trim away as much of the surface fat from the lamb as possible. Brush or rub the chops on both sides with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Press the parsley and basil firmly into both sides of each chop. Let stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before roasting.
- Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, start making the sauce: In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the olive oil. Add the shallot and saute until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Increase the heat to medium-high, add the tomatoes and cook, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes soften and release their liquid, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove from heat, stir in the basil and mint, and set aside until the lamb chops are roasted.
- Preheat a large, heavy ovenproof fry pan over high heat until very hot. Add the 1 Tb olive oil, and then add the lamb chops and sear for 2 minutes. Turn the chops and sear for 1 minute on the other side.
- Immediately transfer the pan to the oven and roast the lamb until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat, away from the bone, registers 125 to 130 F for medium-rare, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven, transfer the chops to a warmed platter and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest while you finish the sauce.
- Pour off any excess fat from the pan. Set the pan over medium-high heat, pour in the wine and cook, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the pan bottom.
- Add the tomato sauce and any juices that have accumulated on the platter and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat.
- Divide the chops among warmed plates. Divide the sauce evenly among them, spooning it over the top. Serve immediately.

- Heat your oven to 400 degrees. While the oven is heating up, chop the onions. I roughly chopped them into smallish chunks, you can chop them however you like. Then slice the baby potatoes in half. Place the onions and potatoes in a roasting pan and drizzle 1 tablespoons of olive oil over, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Stir to evenly coat the potatoes and onions and arrange in the roasting pan leaving a space in the middle for the lamb.
- Next combine the garlic, shallot, lemon zest, and remaining salt, pepper, and olive oil in a small bowl. Then use your hands to spread this mixture all over the lamb, and place the lamb in the middle of the roasting pan.
- Place the lamb and potatoes in the oven and let cook for 30 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 350 degrees and cook for another 45 minutes to 60 minutes. I cooked a 1 pound cut of lamb and it reached 145 degrees (medium doneness) after cooking for 50 minutes at 350 degrees.
- While the lamb is roasting, prepare the mint sauce by simply mixing the chopping mint leaves, granulated sugar, salt, hot water, and red wine vinegar together.
