4 Lamb Recipes to Make Your Mouth Water

Lamb and mutton are of course the names given to the red meat taken from the sheep. The distinction between the two is dictated by the animal’s age. A lamb is under 1-year-old and is generally much more tender than mutton.

The meat is popular throughout Central Asia, the Middle East and the Mediterranean, but also commonly produced in Oceania. A lambs red meat has a distinct flavour, which comes about because of fatty acids which aren’t found in chicken or beef.

The meat is versatile and found in many different dishes around the globe.

Rogan Josh

A curry of Indian origin, the Rogan Josh is a popular option for lovers of lamb. The curried meat takes both its flavour and colour from the alkanet flower as well as Kashmiri chillies.

Flavouring the lamb with garlic, ginger and other aromatic spices, the meat is slow cooked in a tomato-based sauce. The deep red colour and creamy tomato curry sauce is full of intense, aromatic spices and flavour.
