Receta Sweet, Adobo-style Lamb Shanks
Lamb is one of my favorite meats although I must admit I seldom cook it at home. I usually just enjoy it when I eat out at restaurants. Among my favorites: Mongolian lamb and Lamb Masala. For some reason, the thought of cooking lamb at home is very intriguing, as if it is a feat that only professional chefs can be successful at. Well, I have just made a conscious decision to cook more lamb at home, starting with this recipe of adobo-style lamb shanks. Lamb meat is not as readily available in the Philippines. Otherwise, lamb adobo would be a favorite everyday meal in restaurants and households.
