Gergyovsko agneRoast lamb with rice

St George's Day, Gergyovden, on 6 May, is one of Bulgaria's biggest festivals: George is the patron of shepherds, and every family roasts lamb, traditionally a whole one baked over rice, green onions, mint and chopped liver. Our site writes this as a boned lamb shoulder rather than a whole animal: the shoulder is slow-roasted on a bed of rice cooked with the lamb's liver, spring onions, dill and mint, which soaks up the juices. Serve with a yogurt and cucumber salad. Chef's tip: cover the lamb for most of the roast and uncover it only at the end, so it stays juicy and the rice doesn't dry out.

Drob sarmaBaked lamb liver and rice

Gergyovden, St George's Day on 6 May, is the great shepherds' feast in Bulgaria, when families roast spring lamb and make sure nothing goes to waste: the liver and heart go into drob sarma, baked alongside the roast and often eaten first. The offal is blanched, chopped small and fried with plenty of spring onion, then baked with rice in stock with dried mint and paprika until the grains are plump; a topping of yogurt beaten with eggs sets into a soft, golden, faintly tangy custard. Serve hot with a lettuce and radish salad. Liver is very high in vitamin A, so pregnant women are usually advised to avoid it. Where most people go wrong is over-frying the liver, which turns it grainy; it only needs to lose its pink before it goes into the oven to finish cooking. Chef's tip: beat thick, full-fat yogurt with the eggs until completely smooth, so the topping puffs evenly.

KobeteLamb and potato pie

Kobete is the grand pie of Crimean Tatar celebrations, a tall golden dome cut at the table like a cake, its name thought to come from an old word for a pastry dome. Inside, small cubes of raw lamb, potato and onion are seasoned with black pepper and baked slowly in a soft, buttery yoghurt pastry, so the meat cooks in its own juices into a peppery broth that soaks the potato. Chicken versions are common too. Serve warm with a sharp salad or ayran. People tend to cut the meat too big; in a sealed pie, large chunks stay chewy while the crust burns. Allow time for the long bake and a short rest before slicing. Chef's tip: pour a ladle of hot stock through the steam hole halfway through baking, which keeps the filling juicy and tells you, by the bubbling, that it is cooking well inside.
