There are many reasons why you can love lamb meat. Firstly, it is absolutely not greasy, contrary to popular belief. For example, in comparison with the same pork, it can even be called dietary. At the same time, its nutritional value is not inferior to beef, recognized by all housewives.
Secondly, it has a special taste that is so different from the chicken we are tired of. And thirdly, you can cook lamb in any convenient way, even bake it in the oven, cook soups from it, or stew it in a slow cooker. We will talk about the cooking features of the latter in this review.

Which part of the mascara and what to use it for?

If this is your first time using lamb, remember which parts of the carcass will be good for which dishes:

  • rear - the classic leg of lamb is prepared only as a whole piece. Of course, this is impossible to do in a slow cooker, but in the oven the dish will turn out amazing;
  • dorso-scapular part (posterior)- cutlets or chops are prepared from it;
  • pulp from a leg or brisket- an ideal solution for lamb stew in a slow cooker, as well as a delicious component of pilaf;
  • shoulder blade or neck- this meat has a delicate structure, but is quite fatty, so it just begs to be added to lamb soup in a slow cooker. Recipes also suggest using it for chopped dishes.

Here are some solutions for cooking lamb in a slow cooker. Recipes and photos from our review will help you create these dishes!

Housewives who have a multicooker unanimously claim that it greatly simplifies the cooking process.

Food in a multicooker does not burn even with a minimum amount of liquid, because during operation there is a water cycle inside: steam rises to the top during boiling, settles on the inside of the lid in the form of large drops, and these, in turn, flow back into the bowl.

You can cook absolutely anything in a slow cooker. It even turns out stewed meat to be especially tasty.

Let's take lamb, for example. Because of the specific smell, many housewives do not want to cook dinner from it. But you just need to choose the right meat, because only the meat of an adult, especially a male, has a smell. Young lamb turns out juicy and tasty even with a minimal amount of spices.

It is easy to distinguish young meat from old meat. Young meat is light red or pinkish in color, has white fat and has almost no smell. If it is dark red, and the fat is yellow and has an unpleasant odor, then this is an adult. And you can’t do without pre-soaking and marinating.

Subtleties of cooking

In Asian, Caucasian cuisine and some European cuisines, both first and second courses are prepared from lamb.

  • But, given the presence of a peculiar aroma that comes from lamb during cooking, it is recommended to cook this meat with a large amount of vegetables, herbs and spices. Moreover, they should have a pronounced aroma, but not so much as to drown out the natural smell of meat.
  • Feel free to add onions, garlic, peppers, eggplants, potatoes, tomatoes, as well as beans, turnips, carrots, beans and herbs to the lamb.
  • If you get lamb with a smell, cut it into pieces and sprinkle with vinegar, lemon juice or wine. After aging in the marinade, the smell will be practically undetectable, and the meat will become softer. Avoid using vinegar if you intend to cook lamb with potatoes, as the acid will cause the potatoes to remain tough for a long time.
  • According to some recipes, the meat is first fried and then vegetables are added one by one. Such dishes turn out to be satisfying, with a rich taste and concentrated gravy.
  • Other recipes call for meat and vegetables to be placed together. In this case, they are not mixed. During the cooking process, abundant liquid is released from vegetables and meat, and they are stewed in their own juice. This dish turns out to be almost dietary and very tasty.
  • Lamb with vegetables can become sweet and sour if stewed with tomatoes and paprika. If you cook meat with the addition of garlic, adjika, and red pepper, the dish will have a spicy taste.
  • When cooking lamb, do not fry it until it browns. Such meat will eventually lose its juiciness and turn out less tasty.
  • If the meat is not young, fry it, then add a little water and simmer until soft. And only then add vegetables. Otherwise, they will be overcooked and the meat will remain tough.
  • Lamb with vegetables can be either the first course or the second course. It all depends on how much liquid you pour into the bowl. Instead of water, you can take broth, beer, wine, tomato juice, liquid sour cream. And then, if you have the same composition of vegetables, you will always get dishes with a completely new taste.

Note to the hostess

If your multicooker does not have a “Frying” mode, replace it with the “Baking” mode.

Fry meat and vegetables with the lid open; close the lid when stewing.

The “Stew” program can be replaced with the “Soup” function, but you must be prepared for the dish to boil more actively.

Today I will tell you how to bake a whole piece of lamb in a slow cooker. The dish turns out juicy, tender, soaked in garlic and a mixture of herbs. And it does not at all have that specific lamb taste, which is why many people do not eat this type of meat. Cilantro plays a key role here. For the most part, thanks to it, the meat loses that specific “smell.” Well, the cooking process itself, although it may seem somewhat lengthy to you, is not burdensome.

Ingredients:

  • Lamb - 600-700 gr.
  • Olive oil - 3 tablespoons
  • Cilantro (fresh) - 1 bunch
  • Garlic - 2-3 cloves
  • Thyme - to taste
  • Marjoram - to taste
  • Black pepper (ground) - to taste
  • Salt - to taste

Preparation:


1. Since I bake the meat in one piece, in the store I choose a size that will fit into the multicooker bowl. And I make sure that the meat is not too fatty. For roasting, it is good to buy a saddle of lamb or loin. This time I don’t know the name of the part I bought, since my husband bought it, and in the store they often chop it in such a way that it’s not always clear which part of the carcass it comes from (when a butcher swings an ax, that’s the part that will come out). One way or another, the lamb was bought. I wash it thoroughly and dry it with a paper towel or napkin. I wash and dry a bunch of cilantro. I prepare olive oil (you can replace it with sunflower oil, but odorless), garlic, salt, pepper and dry herbs.


2. Pour oil into a bowl (its size should correspond to the size of the piece of lamb), squeeze out the garlic, add salt, pepper, thyme and marjoram. I also send cilantro there, which I finely chop with a knife (you can chop (leaves along with stems) in a processor). I mix everything well - I get a mixture with which I rub the meat on all sides. To help it penetrate deeper, you can make cuts or punctures on the meat with a knife. I leave the coated lamb in the same bowl and, covering it with a lid, put it in the refrigerator for several hours (you can even leave it overnight).


3. After marinating, transfer the lamb to foil. If some of the mixture remains in the dish, then spoon it under the meat and on top. Then I “wrap” the lamb in two layers of foil. I try to wrap it tightly, but at the same time carefully. I make sure that the seeds do not tear the packaging. I pay special attention to the “seams”.


4. Next, I place the package in the multicooker bowl. Many people claim that the bowl will not be damaged by the foil, and that it’s okay. I have no particular desire to check how true this is. I'd rather play it safe. That is, I cut out a circle from baking paper and put it on the bottom of the multi-pan. This way the foil does not come into contact with the bowl. It was a retreat. Now I continue with the preparation. I close the multicooker (Redmond M170, power 900 W) and turn it on to “Multicook” with a temperature selection of 150 degrees. Baking time 2 hours. The process will take place without my further participation.


5. I take the finished lamb out of the slow cooker and carefully cut the foil. Alternatively, you can then “brown” the meat under the air fryer. It will have a beautiful golden crust. However, to my taste, the meat itself will become drier. So I leave it as it is and...


6. ..... simply transfer it to a dish, pouring the juice formed in the foil on top. I serve with cilantro. In my opinion, she is not out of place here either.

The article contains interesting and easy-to-follow lamb recipes (in a slow cooker). By choosing any of the proposed options, you can please your family with a hearty lunch. Lamb dishes cooked in a slow cooker turn out juicy, aromatic and incredibly tasty. We wish you bon appetit!

How to choose lamb?

You decided to cook a delicious and satisfying soup for lunch and went to the nearest market. How to choose the right lamb meat? It all depends on the dish you will prepare. For example, brisket or shoulder are best suited for pilaf. Do you want to stew meat and vegetables? Then we recommend that you purchase a rear leg.

The main thing is that the piece of meat has a pink color and a small amount of fat. The dark red tint of the flesh and the yellow tint of the fat indicate that the animal was old and poorly nourished.

Roasted lamb ribs

Grocery list:

Practical part:

1. First of all, we need to fry the ribs. All 12 pieces are unlikely to fit at the same time. Therefore, it is better to place 4 of them in the multicooker bowl.

2. Before you start frying the ribs, you need to remove excess fat from them. The main thing is not to overdo it. After all, in the absence of a fat layer, the ribs will turn out dry and tough. Rub them with salt and pepper. Place the first 4 ribs in the slow cooker. Select the “frying/baking” mode. Here you can do without a timer. Simply fry the meat until golden brown. We do the same with the second and third batches of ribs.

3. Grind ingredients such as garlic, pepper and shallots. Place them in a deep cup. Add butter and bread crumbs. Mix thoroughly until a homogeneous mass is obtained. Chop the greens and sprinkle them over the mixture.

4. Coat the fried ribs with mustard, and then dip them in a mixture of bread cats and butter. Place the meat in the slow cooker again, selecting the “stew” mode. Cooking time - 2 hours. Do not serve the dish immediately after the beep. To make the ribs more juicy and flavorful, they need to be kept in a slow cooker with the lid open for at least 30 minutes.
