My parents live in Myanmar but they would often visit me in Australia during winter. This was also when they caught up with all of their old friends. One such friend, Aunty Cho, used to always invite the whole family over for a lamb roast every winter. It was prepared by her husband and he…

Garlic lamb chops with white wine and lemon jus (480 calories per serve)
I realised today that lamb loin chops are an underrated cut of the meat. I tend to stick to my usual lamb cutlets, lamb racks, lamb shanks or leg of lamb but hardly ever get loin chops. Rosemary is usually paired with lamb but honestly, garlic matches with every meat and tastes great with lamb…
Spiced lamb and pumpkin pilaf (646 calories per serve)
