Halal Guys Lamb and Rice Recipe

Ah, the street car recipe for the ages - spiced lamb, golden rice and creamy, white sauce. Sublime!
Start by marinating your lamb in a yogurt and spice mixture overnight to infuse it with incredible taste and tenderness.
When cooking the rice, I always make sure to toast it in a little oil with turmeric before adding water.
That step really enhances the dish and gives the rice its vibrant golden color that’s so recognizable.

Instructions
 
  • Marinate the lamb with green seasoning, yogurt, vinegar, lemon juice, and olive oil.
