Baked lamb and yogurt

Baked lamb and yogurt, Tav‘ Kosi, is an Albanian recipe for lamb.

1-1/2 lbs lamb 4 tablespoons butter (1/2 stick) 2 tablespoons rice Salt,
pepper

For Yogurt sauce:

1 tablespoon flour 4 tablespoons butter (1/2 stick) 2 lbs. yogurt 5 eggs
Salt, pepper

Cut meat in 4 serving pieces, sprinkle each piece with salt and pepper, and
bake in a moderately-heated oven with half the butter, sprinkling the meat
with its gravy now and then. When meat is half-baked, add rice; remove the
baking pan from the oven and leave it aside while you prepare the yogurt
sauce:

Saute flour in butter until mixed throughly. Mix yogurt with salt, pepper
and eggs until a uniform mixture is obtained, and finally stir in the flour.
Put the sauce mixture in the baking pan; stir it with the meat pieces and
bake at 375 degrees F for about 45 minutes. Serve hot.
