Lamb Recipes

I admit I don't often buy lamb, it's not that I don't like it, I love lamb. I just don't like the smell of it. Anyway this is a version of a rogan josh I picked up a few years ago. One of my friends cooked it when I was round at her house for the evening hence I can't say where she got the recipe from. I have adjusted it slightly to my own taste and added a few other spices but things like the amount of chilli powder can be changed to suit your own tastes. I tend to like mine with a fair bit of heat. Whilst my friend added quite a bit of salt to her's I have left this out here as I don't personally like food to be too salty and the stock especially if you use ...  Read the complete review

Although I wouldn't always eat a lot of red meat in my diet, I do like the distinctive taste of lamb, and would very often select a dish with lamb from a menu when out.

Lamb Pitas My children like this recipe as they get to "make their own". I like the flavours! The meat is mildly spicy - you can increase or decrease the amount of spices to suit your taste. I made it too hot once so we put banana slices in too ... The salad, pita, and meat mixture gives a variety of textures in your mouth at once, which I like. My daughter wouldn't eat lettuce or grated carrot on its own but she'll have them like this. --- Ingredients --- 4 tsp cumin 4 tsp dried coriander 1 pinch of nutmeg 4 tsp ginger 2 cloves garlic Half an onion a little olive oil 500g lamb ...  Read the complete review
