This recipe comes from my fiance's Lebanese grandmother, so the measurements
may not be completely exact....
1 leg of lamb, ground course with fat and bone removed (about 4 1/2 pounds?
Can also use good lamb shoulder.)
1 stick margarine, melted (add more if needed)
Saute the lamb meat with butter for 10 minutes
Boil 1 chicken breast or chicken neck or 2 wings to make broth for meat -- use
enough water to cover chicken -- about 3 cups? Can also use canned
chicken broth.... we have and haven't had a problem -- but don't tell
Sitto!! Set broth aside...
Add 1/4 cup snobar (pine nuts) to lamb and let simmer
Add 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1/4 tsp cinnammon, 1/4 tsp allspice (all
spices can be altered slightly to taste, but be very careful not to use
too much cinn. & allspice)
Let simmer for 20 minutes; keep stirring.
Add 1/2 cup washed rice (we use long grain white, but I doubt it matters)
Mix with meat for 10 minutes (continue to let it simmer...)
Now add 1 3/4 cup broth; reserve remaining broth in case you need more...
Keep checking until rice is cooked. Stir occaisonally.
