Lamb Adobo




This lamb adobo recipe comes from Yasmin Newman’s cookbook 7000 Islands – A Food Portrait of the Philippines. "Adobo is both the national dish and the country’s most popular. In my humble opinion, its simplicity, versatility and distinctive use of vinegar deserve all the attention. I would happily eat it every day and proudly serve it when entertaining. This recipe was kindly shared by the renowned LJC Restaurant group where goat, a traditional Filipino meat, is used for its signature adobo. For accessibility, this version slow braises lamb shoulder. Lamb is a similarly strong-flavoured meat widely available elsewhere and works beautifully in this dish."
