1
A balanced blend of Persian spices & rosewater are slow simmered with lamb shanks, for a succulent flavor you're unlikely to find among other cuts of lamb. Subtle hints of orange zest, lime, dried rose buds and rosewater give this dish subtle complexity- a trademark of Persian cooking. Perfect served alongside long-grain basmati rice tinged with saffron, this dish makes a frequent appearance during Nowruz, Persian New Year, celebrating spring fertility and renewal.
