mg in to the markets. Now, there
are two schools of thought about
lamb dishes. It’s about like but
termilk, you either like it a lot or
not at all! For those who do,
lamb is acceptable all four sea
sons, but there’s really nothing to
compare with the lovely, tender
lamb of spring. It runs a little
higher per pound, but is well
worth it if you want something
just a little special.
The recipe I am giving you to
day is designed to make those
who simply hate lamb pass their
plates for a second helping. It is
for Stuffed Leg of Lamb, and I
never fix it without thinking, of
my good friend and former neigh
bor, Willetta Ponzer, when she
and John first came to Southern
Pines shortly after their marriage
in the late 40’s. Willetta, an at
tractive airline hostess before her
marriage, was quite removed
from cuisine chores the house
wife falls heir to. One day, she
wanted especially to cook some
thing for a buffet supper that was
a little out of the ordinary so
together we fixed this stuffed
lamb. It turned' out beautifully,
along with the whole wheat rolls
she dropped on the floor just be
fore putting them into the oven.
It was a minor catastrophe, but
she and I were the only ones who
knew about it and we weren’t
talking!
I’d like to add that since those
early years of housekeeping, she
has turned into one of the town’s
finest cooks and hostesses. Her
cooking is wonderful now, and it
was all learned by study and ex
perience—and a desire to turn
out a perfectly finished product.
Now for the STUFFED LEG
OF LAMB: Have the butcher
bone and skin a good-sized leg
of lamb, but ask him to leave on
the last few inches of shank bone.
Have 1-2 pound smoked ham, 1-4
pound veal, 1-4 pound fresh pork
and the trimmings from the lamb
ground together two or three
times. This will make forcemeat
with which the lamb will be
stuffed. (Not horse meat, as my
horrified butcher once thought I
said. The last of that I will never
hear!) Better tell him what you’re
up to, so that in boning the lamb
he will leave big flaps for sewing
up the ends.
Work the ground meat with
your hands to make it very
smooth, add a pinch of cayenne
and nutmeg, 1-2 teaspoon marjor
am, a little salt, a bit of bay leaf,
crumbled, 1-4 cup fine dry bread
crumbs, 1 whole raw egg and 1
raw egg yolk, a clove of garlic
very finely minced, and 1-4 cup
top milk or cream. Work until
thoroughly blended. Chop 1-2
pound fresh mushrooms fine and
saute a few minutes in plenty of

boro.
butter or margarine. Add mush
rooms to meat and again blend
well. ' . ■ • .
Now you’re ready to stuff in
the forcemeat, but first put your
hand inside the leg of lamb and
stretch outward to make the cav
ity as large as possible. Put in as
much forcemeat as the cavity will
hold and sew neatly with twine.
Cover the bottom of a roasting
pan with several strips of bacon
and put leg- of lamb on this.
Sprinkle meat with salt and pep
per and put a bay leaf over it.
If fat covering lamb is very thin
lay several strips of bacon on top,
too.
A meat thermometer will regis
ter 175 degrees for medium-done
lamb—180 for well-done. If you
wish a glaze on the roast you
may baste it during'the last hour
of cooking with a sauce made of
current or grape jelly mixed with
an equal amount of a good red
wine.
If you really do try this little
number—and I hqpe you will—
I believe it will be a party favor
ite. It’s a beauty when finished,
decorated with parsley and serv
ed with new Spring vegetables.
Of course, this is the carver’s
dream dish. Just clean neat slices
right through the whole leg of
lamb—no bones except the little
shank bone at the end which you
can dress up with a paper frill.
