INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

FOCACCIA BREAD
PORT WINE SAUCE
Rub the leg of lamb thoroughly with garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and olive
oil. On the stove, brown the lamb in a large skillet with olive oil until
golden. In a preheated 450 degree oven, bake lamb until internal
temperature is 125 degrees. Let lamb rest and cool for 5 minutes. Slice, as
thinly as possible. Add sauce ingredients to pan and reduce by half of
volume. Toss sliced lamb with sauce.
Focaccia:
Put shallots, scallions, garlic, thyme, and olives in mixing bowl. Add
flour on top. On left side of bowl, put salt. Put soft butter in bowl. Take
water, slightly warmer than body temperature (about 110 degrees), and whisk
in yeast. Pour the water and yeast mixture in bowl on right side. Do not
let salt and yeast touch at this time. Put in mixer with dough hook on
level #1 or low for 15 minutes. Dough should be elastic after 15 minutes of
kneading. Coat dough with small amount of olive oil and put in a bowl to
rise. Place bowl in a warm place and let rise until it doubles in size.
Separate dough into three equal pieces. Flatten each ball of dough onto an
oiled cookie sheet to fill the sheet (do not pull). Brush with olive oil
and sprinkle with coarse salt and herbs. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven
for about 50 minutes or until golden brown. Makes 3 loaves.
Note: You can halve the recipe and bake one focaccia on a large baking
sheet.
To assemble sandwich:
Have bread already prepared and ready to go. Cut bread into 5" by 5"
squares and then slice lengthwise. Take sliced bread and toast it on the
grill or in the oven. Spread mayonnaise and sprinkle the chopped basil on
top. Placed mixed greens atop and then the sliced lamb. Cut sandwich
diagonally so you have two triangular shapes. Serve with your favorite
accompaniment, such as potato salad or coleslaw. We serve it at Spago with
crispy fried vegetable chips.
