Roast Lamb Chops Southern Italian Style
This recipe for roast lamb chops is really an idea or a guideline and not necessarily a recipe as such. It is a rustic family meal which was probably cooked by many Mama's in outdoor wood ovens in the southern regions of Italy using ingredients they happened to have on hand. If you have a wood oven by all means use it, otherwise for the rest of us, these roast lamb chops will be just as good using your regular kitchen oven.
You can make this dish equally as simply whether it be dinner for 2 or dinner for a whole crowd. Also, you don't necessarily have to use lamb – try it with chicken, turkey or even goat pieces. And, use more or less of any of the ingredients to suit your own taste. Experimenting with food is half the fun!
My personal favourite is using lamb chops as they cook to tender perfection!
INGREDIENTS: (for 4 people)
8 lamb chops
12 -16 small whole potatoes or, a few large potatoes cut into wedges
6 cloves of garlic, whole or you can chop them roughly
Rosemary & oregano
Salt & pepper to taste
A splash of white wine & water – about half a cup of each just to keep the base moist
4 - 6 chopped fresh tomatoes or about 1 cup bottled tomato puree (try not to add too much, just enough to add a little colour & flavour)
A handful of grated pecorino cheese
A small handful of dry breadcrumbs
HERE'S HOW TO ASSEMBLE:
• Roughly layer the lamb chops with the potatoes.
• Poke the garlic cloves between the lamb & potatoes.
• Sprinkle with fresh or dried rosemary & oregano, salt & pepper.
• Pour wine & water down one side so as not to wash off the seasoning.
• Scatter chopped tomatoes or tomato puree over lamb & potatoes.
• Finish with a handful of grated pecorino cheese sprinkled over.
• Scatter with breadcrumbs to soak up any excess liquid.
Cover baking dish with foil and bake for about an hour at 200 Celcius. Remove foil for the rest of the cooking time and bake until everything is tender, probably another hour or so.
And that's about as simple as it gets!
Served with a glass of Chianti and some rustic Italian style bread and perhaps a green salad or some lightly steamed green vegetables, it is simply delicious!

Divorce, Italian Style - Widescreen $34.99 To fully appreciate the international box-office bonanza Divorce, Italian Style (Divorzio All'Italiana), one must remember that back in 1962, divorce was illegal in Italy. Ferdinando Cefal?(Marcello Mastroianni) would love to unload his demanding, sex-starved, monumentally unappealing wife, Rosalia (Daniela Rocca), but he can't take the legal means open to his American counterparts. Ferdinando can, however, kill off his wife and receive a light sentence...provided he catches the lady committing adultery. The trick now is to make his plate-of-potatoes spouse attractive enough so that some other man will accommodate Ferdinando by cuckolding him. Divorce, Italian Style not only cleaned up financially, but also won several international film awards, as well as an Oscar nomination for Marcello Mastroianni. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi |

Marriage Italian Style - Subtitle $19.99 In flashback, Marcello Mastroianni recalls his wartime romance with Sophia Loren. He is so enamored with her that he finances her escape from the bordello where she lives and sets her up with a good job in the restaurant that he owns, and later finds a place for her on his mother's domestic staff. He is not, however, enamored enough to make their union legal, and expects Loren to behave like a servant by day and his mistress by night. Years later, Loren lies on her deathbed. The contrite Mastroianni finally consents to marry her. Not only does she make a full recovery, but she brings her three grown sons to live with the nonplused Mastroianni after the wedding. He tries to weasel out of the arrangement, but is mollified by Loren's insistence that all three boys are his sons. Thus, after nearly twenty years' servitude, Loren is at last in a position to call the shots. Sold to American distributors on the basis of Sophia Loren's revealing costumes (some of these absolutely defy the laws of gravity), Marriage Italian Style remains a warm and spicy concoction today, even after years of less expert imitations. The film was based on Filumena Marturano by Eduardo de Filipo. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi |
