Italian Tacos
- 1 tablespoon black peppercorns
- 1 tablespoon fennel seed
- 2 tablespoons dried Sicilian oregano
- 2 tablespoons chile flakes
- 1 bone-in lamb shoulder (about 10 pounds)
- 3 tablespoons Kosher salt
- 4 fresh eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups 2 percent milk
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for cooking
- 1 small red onion, minced
- Preheat the oven to 300F.
- To prepare the lamb, place the peppercorns, fennel seed, oregano, and chile flakes in a spice grinder and process to a powder.
- Rub the lamb all over with the spice rub and salt and place on a baking sheet.
- Roast until the internal temperature reaches 145F.
- Remove from the oven and allow to rest for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- To make the crespelle, put the eggs, flour, milk, salt, and butter in a blender and process until smooth.
- Pour into a bowl and allow to rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Lightly brush a 10-inch skillet with olive oil, wiping out the excess with a paper towel, and set over medium heat.
- Using a measuring cup, pour 1/4 cup batter into the prepared skillet, tilting the pan to distribute the batter evenly.
- Cook until the underside is spotted with brown and the crespelle is set.
- Use the tip of a metal offset spatula to flip the crespelle.
- Immediately slide the crespelle out onto a plate lined with a kitchen towel.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
- To serve, allow your guests to pull meat off the roast and place on the crespelle.
- Top with minced red onion, wrap, and eat.
