To make up the numbers we bought lambshanks from the supermarket instead – enough for one per person – and I was going to save the lamb chunks for another time
What was supposed to be Nic’s LambKleftiko, somehow it became something else altogether but it was so tasty (and actually way easier than I thought) that it is worth sharing
Beef Stifado, LambKleftiko, Soulaki all home made. We both had Greek salad with Tsatsiki and pitta bread followed by their take on Kleftiko which is served in a pot and topped with cheese
Of the main courses, the grilled whole chicken marinated in a special sauce caught my eye, as well as the kleftiko, a traditional Turkish dish which is a shank of lamb in a rich vegetable sauce
Crush the garlic cloves and rub over the lambshanks. Place the lambshanks on top of the onions. Place in the oven for a minimum of 4 hours, but the shanks can happily stay in longer. 4 lambshanks
Greek-Style Lamb, Potato & Thyme Kleftiko. Madhouse Daddy came back from the butcher's with these huge shanks of beef so I decided that slow cooking was the way to go
Greek-Style Lamb, Potato & Thyme Kleftiko drizzle of olive oil. I've been wanting to try this in my slow cooker since coming back from Morocco and although it's not quite as good as the one we ate there, it's not bad at all
