Awesome recipe! To deal with the extra fat from the lamb, right before adding the rice skim the liquidy fat from the top of the water and throw it out. I did this and mine was not too greasy and still full of flavor

Have you ever tried cooking this in the Instant Pot? I’m considering trying to adapt it, but obviously if you’ve already done it I’d love to hear your experiences! It sounds absolutely delicious.

Hi Charley, I used short grain rice when I made this recipe but I’m sure that jasmine rice will work too. Since Jasmine rice requires more water, you might need to slightly adjust water level during step 7. If the water has been fully absorbed and the dish looks dry, you should add a bit more water before steaming them in the dutch oven.
Happy cooking and I can’t wait to hear how your dish turns out 🙂

My husband and I have pasture raised our own lamb for meat. I have not historically been a huge fan of lamb but in the spirit of raising my own food and working towards a more sustainable lifestyle- I find myself in search of some unique recipes that can help me appreciate the flavor of lamb. I came across this recipe and I am SO excited to make this. I am wondering what type of rice you use? I have Mahatma Jasmine rice right now and this will be my first time soaking rice so I want to make sure I do it right!

Thank you for sharing this recipe and hopefully you can get back to me before I attempt this! 🙂

for 2 cups of rice, it says to add 3 cups of water; how much water would I need to add if I wanted to cook 3 cups of rice or 4 cups of rice?

I understand you like to use lamb with skin but this recipe does not use it if I am not mistaken.

In reply to Maggie. Where can I find the ribs with skin I live in Houston.
