Product description
Shoulder of lamb*, hand-diced by our expert butchers into approximately one-inch pieces for added versatility. Perfect for casseroles, curries, and kebabs.
Chef Valentine Warner inspires:
"Shoulder is my absolute go to when using diced-meat for stews and braises. Containing a considerably higher fat content than the leg, it renders to a delicious almost gluey softness that I so prefer.
Try a vindaloo (or vindalho), a Goan curry based on the traditional Portuguese dish carne de vinha d'alhos, containing white wine vinegar, green chillies and a lot of garlic. Eaten with rice is a natural pairing, or instead hollow out a loaf of crusty white bread and serve it South African bunny chow-style.
Continuing the chilli theme, try making a Mexican birria-style casserole with ancho and guajillo chillies, apple cider vinegar and spices, and eating with soft flour tortillas. Truly delicious.
A French ragoût or navarin of lamb, with tomatoes is a wonderful thing. Returning homewards, a slow braise with carrots, turnips and pearl barley is delicious as is a creation with leeks, dill and capers in a white sauce.
A favourite amongst tagine styles is a barkouk; the lamb is spiced with a little black pepper, cumin, saffron and cinnamon, cooked with acacia honey and prunes and served garnished with boiled eggs and toasted Spanish almonds.
When in Japan I like to thread small pieces of diced lamb shoulder onto a skewer and cook carefully over glowing charcoal; serve with yakitori tare and a cold beer!"
*Swaledale lambs roam free across vast distances, migrating between valleys and hill tops, foraging as they go. The limestone pastures of the Yorkshire Dales are home to a unique range of herbs, grass and wildflowers, the cocktail of which bestows the lamb with a rich, deep colour to the meat and distinctive flavour. Robust and slightly sweet in character, the Swaledale lamb also has a subtle herbal undertone; the provenance is unmistakably Yorkshire. Diced Shoulder of Lamb is Always Fresh Never Frozen®, butchered to order, vacuum packed, and shipped in recyclable packaging to arrive safely insulated and ready to enjoy.
