Cooking Instructions

Marinate the Lamb

In a large bowl, combine the minced garlic, black pepper, olive oil, salt, rosemary, and lemon juice. Add the Evritania lamb and coat it well with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Cook the Lamb

Place the marinated lamb in a roasting pan and transfer it to the preheated oven. Roast for about 1 hour or until the lamb reaches your desired doneness, basting occasionally with the pan juices.

Rest and Serve

Once cooked, remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

Seftalia is a Cypriot dish made from ground meat, usually a mix of pork and lamb suet, seasoned with spices and shaped into small meatballs. These meatballs are often combined with flavors like garlic, onion, and cinnamon, giving them a rich and savory profile, and they can be served with a soffrito sauce for added depth. Here's how to make it at home.
