  • About

Another Passover dish, this Sephardic recipe was originally made with a boned lamb shoulder into which a pocket was cut. Leg of lamb is much easier to bone, stuff, and roll, however, and is kosher, as long as the sciatic nerve is removed. The filling resembles a traditional dolma stuffing and would be delicious spooned into tomatoes, eggplant, or zucchini for an inexpensive meal.
