Thank you for sharing this recipe, it turned out so good 👍
Hello dear friend 🌹😽 greeting from Macau china
Thank you for great recipe
Look very delicious 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Filos. Ilived on Crete for 8 years when I was in the US Air Force. I'll be making this for sure.
Thanks Pete!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Ken thanks for all your videos I have been watching. You are great Chef.
Thanks Anthony!!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I first had this dish in Thasos. It was sooo good and so earthy with all those herbs. I have since recreated it here at home but i used shoulder of lamb and i cooked it on a slow heat for 5-6 hours, that way the meat just falls off the bone, it always turns out sublime. Saying that, this is the closest recipe that i have seen on youtube to the one i use. Great job mate.
Thank you for your comment:-)) Cheers!!!!
Can you tell me slow cook at what temp? thank you
@Wendy RS I usually cook mine at around 160°C if I want to cook for around 7 hours or 180°C if I want it ready in 5-6 hours. This is based on the size of the cut of meat you're using. You also need to make sure you wrap it tight. I use foil, and I make sure that there are no gaps so that the moisture is kept in and the meat doesn't dry out. Good luck 👍🏾
@@KnightofSnowdonia thank you! ... I am trying it now ... let you know how it turns out ...
Looks great, making lamb kabobs for Easter...🍞🍷🍷🍾

Μπράβο σου μύρισε Ελλάδα με το φαγητό που έκανες να είσαι πάντα καλά από Ελλάδα με αγάπη 👍🙋🌹🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

It looks so delicious, would it be possible to ad lemon and some potatoes?
I personally add potatoes.
The secret to perfect Kleftiko are Temperature & Time
Low temperature (100f) and Long time (5 hours minimum).
Kleftiko in Cyprus always has potatoes (cut lengthwise in half), and a glass of white wine added. A few sprigs of Rosemary also can be added and my mum adds a stick of cinnamon; rarely if ever, does it have Feta...however, in Crete feta may be an accepted ingredient.
Rather than cook in parchment, use a deep casserole dish with a lid. Make a thick paste of water and cornflour and seal the edge of the lid to the rim of the dish...THEN wrap tightly in Aluminium foil to create an airtight environment and cook for a minimum of 5 hours at 100f.
Excellent tip!!! Thanks very much Christo.... 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I look forward to that video Ken. Thanks a lot..
Hi Ken can you put up some New Year Eve dinner party recommendations that you would cook for about 10 people. xx What would you suggest to cook. I am thinking roast leg of lamb. But what starters? and side dishes. Many Thanks from Ronnie Cambridge UK.
Looks delish! :)
+lionstar99 Thank you🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Proudly Greek by association, I made this recipe for my Greek husband… amazing flavors!! Thank you Ken 😘
Gotta try this also Do you have a reciepe for bone removed stuffed leg of Lamb? I lost the great one i had years ago given to me by one of my Greek friends and i would love to have another for it. Thanks Ken You are a very funny guy and a great Chef..
Thank you AGAIN!!!! I actually have an awesome recipe for boneless stuffed leg of lamb that’s in the works for a vid:-))
I want to be that piece of lamb ...it's getting a back rub hahaha but it looks Yummy 🇬🇷❣🇬🇷❣
Thanks for the video! I recently cooked a leg of lamb dry-rubbed with herbs I brought back from Crete. I'll have to try this recipe, too. It looks amazing. On a different topic, I would love to see a video on making λυχναράκια (καλιτσούνια).
Thank you fort your comment and consider it done!!! I’ll note it and put it up for filming over the next few weeks:-))

Το κλεφτικο αγαπητε μου φιλε εχει την δικη του ιστορια. Οι κλεφτες στο βουνο οταν εκλεβαν ενα αρνι το εσφαζαν το εγδερναν α οογαν ενα λακο στο εδαφος αναβαν φωτια μεσα στο λακο μετα μεσα στο τομαρι του ζωου εβαζαν το κρεας το εχωναν μεσα στο λακο και το σκεπαζαν με χωμα για να μην τους προδοσει η μυρωδια της τσικνας και το αφηναν ολη την νυχτα. Πηγαιναν την αλλην ημερα το ξεθαβαν για να το φανε. Ηταν ο τροπος των κλεφτων για να μην προδοθουν!
Sorry Ken but Kleftico is originally from Cyprus!

Not sure how that mess of a dish tastes but it looks disgusting and never forget you also eat with your eyes so a dish has to look good as well as taste good. Thumbs down 👎 from me
