Hello Binnur,Ive never cooked(and fried) lamb. This meat is not available in my country.However I can I find it frozen somewhere. Does it really cook so quickly? I love this recipe,its perfect for me. Hope to try it one day..:)
Hi,
Yes, it does:) But if you want your lambin strings it needs to be cooked for a long time.
Binnur Hanim, we usually cook the meat for a long time with tomatoes, onions, and a little water to insure softness. I feel like it would be too tough otherwise, what do you think?
I love your website and have your book-- so good!
Thank you Gulay:)
Yes, you are right, but in this recipe the cooking time would be enough. Softness of the lamb would be like frying the lamb chops or kulbasti:)
Take care,
