Easy Lamb in Soy Sauce Recipe | Flavorful & Quick to Make

Lamb cooked in soy sauce with lemongrass, bird’s eye chilies and turmeric leaves in a thick sauce.
Mutton is usually the go-to in my household (MUTTON & LAMB RENDANG RECIPES), but every now and then, lamb takes the spotlight. Wondering what sets them apart? Lamb comes from young sheep, making it tender and mild, while mutton, from older sheep, has a richer, gamier taste and requires longer cooking. That said, I prefer pressure-cooking lamb - it speeds up the process while ensuring soft, succulent meat (SIMPLE & HEARTY LAMB SOUP RECIPE).

This easy and flavorful Lamb in Soy Sauce is a game-changer for your taste buds! Infused with Nava’s Zen homegrown ingredients like lemongrass, chilies, and turmeric leaves, it delivers a bold mix of spicy, sweet, and savory flavors. Quick to make yet packed with depth, imagine tender lamb soaking up an aromatic soy-based sauce - pure indulgence (MALAYSIAN CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP RECIPE).
