"After the long days of Lent, this dish is going to seem like a real miracle, one you can eat in the company of those closest to you."

Ingredients

  • lamb - 3.5 lb (1.5 kg) meat
  • spinach - 2 lb (1 kg)
  • green onions - 1 bunch
  • spearmint - 1 bunch, fresh
  • parsley - 1 bunch
  • black pepper
  • eggs - 3, hard - boiled
  • mince - 9.5 oz (275 g)
  • butter - 1/5 cup (70 g)
  • spice mix - 1 tsp
  • salt
measures

How to make

Shape the meat into an elongated rectangular piece and tenderize it very well. Then sprinkle it with salt, black pepper and spice mix.

Boil the spinach a bit in salted water, then strain it and chop it finely.

In a deep bowl, combine the spinach, mince, finely chopped onions, spearmint and parsley. Stir well and put the prepared stuffing over the meat.

On top of the stuffing, put the peeled eggs and wrap it into a roll, while being careful not to let the stuffing spill out. Tie both ends and the middle of the roll with string and fry until golden.

Then carefully put it in an oven dish and pour in 1 cup water.

Smear it with the butter and bake at 360°F (180 °C) for about 60 min., while basting it periodically with the broth it releases.
