Braised lamb leg
Overview
Besides hot pot, my favorite lamb dish is braised lamb leg. The stewed mutton is tender but not greasy, the potatoes are soft, the carrots are sweet, and after a few sips of the sour and salty clear soup, it is really delicious. Served on a plate, it can be either meat or vegetarian. It is a staple food and can be used as soup. It is rich in nutrients, warms the stomach and replenishes calcium.
