The cookingbites recipe challenge: lamb or goat

[karadekoolaid]

Accidentally stumbled across this,

Brilliant!!
Middle Eastern cuisine uses lots of lamb and the chef sounds as if he's somewhere from the middle east; probably Lebanese or Syrian.

I’ve got it narrowed down…one is a sort of quirky one, the other isn’t going to shake anyone up, but it’s some good ol’ sit-down-shut-up comfort food.

I saw Barriehie's photo of bones and then saw the word "narrowed" in yours and thought "marrowed". I wore my reading glasses while working today (can't see small print very well) and I guess my eyes aren't working very well right now that I took them off...LOL!

So in Singapore, when you see something served as 'mutton' (which is usually in Indian restaurants), there's a high probablity it will actually be goat. Wet markets that sell fresh mutton are all selling goat meat. I'm trying to think if I've ever seen lamb being sold at these markets and I think I've only ever bought lamb at supermarkets and some specialist butcher shops. Actual sheep mutton - I don't think I've seen that for sale here, mind you I think I'd be hard pressed to find that in the UK...

I've depleted my supply of precooked meat from my freezer so when I get back from my trip I'll be taking a jaunt down to a place we call 'Little India' to stock up on 'mutton' (goat).

You just reminded me of my first trip to a Singapore market not too far from peninsula?. I made it 3/4 way through before dry reaching.

I like NZ & Ozz lamb, but also Texel's lamb (one of the islands in the N or NE of the Netherlands)
I'll have to check the price of goat meat. I might have to buy a whole goat

At a guess 96 and 98?

Oh. That was a few years before I moved there. Well, I've no doubt the markets were a bit grim back then, but they aren't that bad these days.

Worst ones I've seen in recent times were in Hong Kong. I think it was the closest I've been to being in a slaughterhouse.

Never went to the markets there. We did however take our travel agents recommended 3 day ferry trip to macau to play the tables.
