Lamb Tandoori Hoagies Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk yogurt, lemon juice, onion, garlic, ginger, garam masala, paprika, cumin, turmeric, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until combined.
• Toss lamb and salt into marinade; mix until lamb pieces are coated evenly. Cover mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, or at least 4 hours.
• Skewer lamb pieces so they barely touch. Wipe off excess marinade with a paper towel. Brush with vegetable oil and sprinkle with salt.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill skewers on medium heat until lamb springs back to the touch, about 5 to 7 minutes on each side.
• Garnish with red onions, lemon wedges, and chopped cilantro as desired.

Steps:

• For the spread: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Calabrian chili paste, lemon zest and salt. Set aside.
• For the sandwich: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and sausage and cook, breaking the sausage into large pieces with a wooden spoon, until golden brown, cooked through and crispy in parts, about 15 minutes. Drain off excess fat if necessary.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the arugula, basil, cider vinegar and salt. Toss well to coat.
• Split the rolls in half horizontally, leaving one side intact. Open the rolls like a book and remove and discard some of the inside of the bread. Spread 1/3 cup of the spicy mayonnaise evenly on each roll. Fill the bottom half of each roll with the crispy sausage mixture. Fill the top half of each roll with 3/4 cup of the giardiniera. Divide the dressed arugula between the sandwiches and close them, pressing gently on the top. Cut each sandwich in half and serve.

Steps:

• For the rolls: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Halve the rolls horizontally and remove some of the bread from the insides of the top halves. Drizzle the rolls evenly with the olive oil and grill until lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a tray and rub the toasted sides of the rolls with the garlic. Set aside.
• For the filling: Sprinkle the steak evenly on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt. Drizzle the onion slices with 1 teaspoon olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, being careful to keep the slices intact so that they are easier to grill. Place the steak and onions on the grill and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the steak reads 135 degrees F and the onions are deep golden, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Allow the steak to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, combine the olives, basil, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, lemon juice, anchovy paste, oregano, roasted peppers and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl. Mix well to combine. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Add the sliced steak to the filling, along with the grilled onions and any accumulated juices from the plate. Toss well to combine.
• Place two slices of provolone on each toasted roll. Fill each roll with 1 cup arugula. Divided the steak filling among the rolls. Cut them in half and serve.

Steps:

• For the dough: Mix the flour, yeast, oil, salt and sugar in a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment. With the mixer on low, slowly add 1/2 cup warm water and mix to combine. Only add more water if not coming together. Mix until the dough comes together and is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead a few times and then divide into 5 balls, each weighing about 100g (3.5 ounces) each. Set on a baking sheet, spray the tops lightly with oil spray and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside while you make the topping. (Can also be refrigerated up to 24 hours.)
• For the topping: Add the bell pepper, onion, parsley, garlic, tomato paste, paprika, salt, allspice, cumin, Aleppo pepper and mint to a food processor and buzz until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add the lamb and pulse until it comes together. Transfer to a bowl.
• For the salad: Toss the arugula together with the lemon juice, salt and pepper and a hefty sprinkle of sumac in a large bowl. Taste for seasoning. Set aside.
• When you're ready to make the lahmajun, place a pizza stone in the oven on a rack about 5 inches away from the broiler element. Heat to 500 degrees F.
• Place 1 dough ball on a generously floured surface and press into a 5-inch circle with your fingers. Then, using a rolling pin, roll into an even thin circle, rotating the circle often. (Circle will be 9-to-10-inches wide.)
• Lightly flour a pizza peel or an upside-down baking sheet. Transfer the rolled crust onto it.
• Place 1/3 cup of the topping in the center of the dough round. Cover with a large piece of plastic wrap and, using your fingers, spread the meat mixture over the surface of the round in a thin, even layer, leaving a very thin border. Peel away the plastic and set aside to reuse for the remaining dough and topping.
• Carefully shimmy the lahmajun onto the hot pizza stone. Bake until the bottom of the crust and its edges are lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven.
• Place a handful of the dressed arugula on the cooked lahmajun. Top with sliced radish, roll the cooked lahmajun into a log and slice into pieces. Serve immediately and go make some more!
