How to Make Greek Lamb Stew called Kapamas
Kapama is the name given to many different aromatic meat stews in Greece. This particular recipe is from Evia, and I’ve included two of the island’s major agricultural products, figs and green olives. It’s a great Sunday meal.
To make this, you will need:
¼ cup olive oil
2 ½ pounds lean lamb preferably leg or shoulder, cut into stewing cubes
2 large white onions peeled and finely chopped
¼ cup brandy
2 cups peeled seeded, and finely chopped tomatoes (with juice)
6 to 8 allspice berries
2 medium bay leaves
1 cinnamon stick
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
¼ cup chopped parsley
1 cup dried Greek figs
1 cup green or black Greek olives rinsed
For the rice:
1 cup basmati rice
2 ½ cups water
1 large pinch saffron (Greek krokos Kozanis)
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon butter

Greek Fall-off the Bone Lamb Shanks (Braised in a delicious sauce)
Get the recipe here:
Ingredients
4 lamb shanks
1/4 cup olive oil
2 carrots
2 celery stalks
3-4 potatoes
1 onion
6 garlic cloves, grated
15-oz crushed tomatoes
3-4 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
4-5 cups water or broth
1 and 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
1 heaping teaspoon dried oregano
2 rosemary sprigs
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 Bay leaves
2-4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °C.
Season the lamb on both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Place a cast-iron (enamel coated) pot over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and brown the lamb shanks on all sides. Do this in 1-2 batches. Set the lamb aside.
While the lamb is browning, prepare the vegetables. Peel and roughly chop the onion and potatoes. Chop the carrots and celery.
Add the vegetables to the pot with a pinch of salt and cook until golden. About 7-8 minutes over medium heat.
Add the garlic and warm through until fragrant.
Add the balsamic, tomato sauce, the herbs and spices. Place the lamb on top and cover with water or broth. Season with salt and pepper.
Place the lid on the pot and transfer to the preheated oven.
Allow the lamb to cook for about 3 hours or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.
Carefully remove the lamb from the pot and set aside in a platter. Remove the vegetables as well. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Place the pot over medium-high heat and allow the sauce to reduce and thicken to your desired cinsistency. I like to mash a potato into the sauce at the beginning to help thicken it.
Add the lemon juice and either place the lamb back into the pot to warm through or serve the sauce on top.
