Pan-fried Lamb with Green Onions and Garlic

Today I want to show you a very traditional lamb recipe on our table - my grandmother used to make it since I can remember, that's the only way I ate lamb all my childhood. A large frying pan was placed in the middle of the table, with garlic sauce and polenta, I don't remember ever having a piece left, it was so good.

It is prepared banally and simply, but the taste is special - the tender meat melts in the mouth, the garlic does not confuse at all, the sweet onion also has its charm - they are all perfect in their place. My husband noticed that this food is dangerous, you can't stop eating, you still want, bit by bit ...

When it starts to boil, turn down the heat, add the bay leaf and cloves if you have it.

Leave on the fire for about an hour, until the meat is completely cooked, but keep it on the bone. I usually try with a knife, if it enters the meat easily, it is ready.

Step 6

After you have browned the meat well on all sides, add the onion to the pan - I put it right over the meat and with a spoon I put it under the meat. This is how it is cooked together with the meat, periodically mixing lightly to sauté evenly.
