Sharing is caring!

Hey KitchenFact Lover. My Today’s issue is ground lamb recipes easy with Phyllo Pastry. This is so good!  You can make individual pastry triangles or a pie.  Individual pastries require less baking time – probably only about 20 minutes.  Serve with the Couscous Salad for a complete and delicious meal.

Ingredients: Ground Lamb Recipes Easy

• 1 lb ground lamb
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp red curry powder
• ¼ cup white wine
• ½ cup chicken stock (more if needed)
• 1 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp pepper
• ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 cup cooked spinach, chopped
• ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 10 sheets (about ½ pkg) phyllo pastry, thawed
• ½ cup melted butter

Directions:

• Brown the lamb over medium heat in a large skillet.
• Drain any fat and remove the lamb to bowl.
• Melt the butter and olive oil over medium low heat and sauté the onion until soft.
• Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
• Stir in the curry powder, salt and pepper, cumin and red pepper flakes.
• Return the lamb to the skillet and add the tomato paste, wine and chicken broth.
• Simmer until the liquid is mostly absorbed, about 10 minutes.  You want the lamb to be very moist but not wet.
• Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• Add the spinach and feta cheese.
• Place 1 sheet of phyllo in the bottom of a deep dish 9” pie plate (ceramic or glass is best).
• Brush with melted butter and repeat for 4 more phyllo sheets, brushing each one with butter.
• Spoon the lamb filling into the pie plate and cover with the remaining 5 sheets, brushing each one with butter as before.
• Trim the excess pastry from the sides and fold to make an even edge.
• Brush the top with butter and bake in a 350F oven for about 40 minutes until the pastry is brown.
• Serve hot with tzatziki (cucumber yogurt dip) or sour cream and lemon wedges.

Hint:  Keep the phyllo covered with a damp towel while making the dish to keep it from drying out.
