How to make delicious authentic cumin lamb

Many people have a love-hate relationship with mutton, because the taste of mutton itself is not bad, but it has a strong smell that is difficult for people to accept. We must also pay attention to this when making cumin mutton.

When making cumin lamb, we first need to choose good lamb, preferably lamb hind leg or lamb tenderloin. Then soak the mutton in warm water for a few hours, changing the water every half an hour to remove the mutton smell.

Before frying, marinate the meat with soy sauce, starch and other seasonings to make it more tender. However, be careful not to add too much starch, as too much will affect the taste of the mutton.

Cumin powder and cumin seeds are essential. Although they are the same seasoning, the taste is completely different. Especially after adding cumin seeds, the lamb will taste better.

When stir-frying lamb, you must use high heat and stir-fry quickly, otherwise the taste will be very bad.
