GOLDEN THISTLE WITH LAMBS MEAT

In the past weeks I discovered the golden thistle plant :) I tried three different recipes with it and I guess my favourite one will be this one (Click here for the golden thistle recipe with chicken); it is delicious! 

I notice that I have not posted the other recipe with golden thistle yet but it will be here soon!

Ingredients (serves 4 – 5)

1 kg golden thistle, washed and drained. Cut roughly into 2 – 3 pieces

1 onion, cubed

300 gr. Lambs meat, cubed

2 – 3 spoons of olive oil

1.5 – 2 glasses of warm water

Salt

For the liaison

1 egg yolk

1 spoon of flour

The juice of 1 lemon(you may consider adding more or less than this amount depending on how much you like sour)

Method:

1. Take the meat to the pressure cooker and saute it on high heat. When the colour turns a bit and the meat sticks to the cooker, add the olive oil and mix; cook the meat a few minutes more until it releases some water and soaks that water back again.
2. Add the onion and sauté 2 – 3 minutes more.
3. Add the golden thistle and saute for 2 minutes more.
4. Add the warm water and close the lid and pressure-cook it for 10 minutes.
5. In the meantime, prepare the creamy sauce: whisk the liaison until the flour dissolves well.
6. When the golden thistle is cooked, take a soup ladle of the water in the pressure-cooker and mix it fast into the liaison. After that, pour the liaison into the pressure cooker and mix. Cook for 2 – 3 minutes more until the smell of the flour disappears. Add salt, mix and serve.
