Tender roasted lamb with crispy-edged Brussels sprouts and a rich natural lamb sauce.

Ingredients:

• 1.3 lb (600 g) lamb pieces
• 1 lb (500 g) pre-boiled Brussels sprouts, well drained
• 1 large onion, sliced
• 4 cloves garlic, lightly crushed
• 1 cup lamb broth (from boiling the lamb)
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp fresh rosemary or thyme
• Salt & black pepper
• Optional: squeeze of fresh lemon juice

Instructions:

1. Dry the sprouts well.
   This is key! Pat them dry so they roast instead of steam.
2. Prepare the lamb:
   If not fully cooked, simmer it first until tender and reserve the broth.
3. Assemble the pan:
   Place the lamb in a roasting dish.
   Add the boiled Brussels sprouts and onion around it.
   Drizzle with olive oil, season generously, and add garlic + herbs.
4. Add broth carefully:
   Pour about ¾ cup lamb broth around the lamb (not directly over the sprouts so they stay crispy).
5. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 30–40 minutes, until:
   • The lamb is golden
   • The sprouts develop crispy, caramelized edges
6. Finish:
   Optional squeeze of lemon juice before serving.

Simple Gluten-Free Lamb Sauce

While roasting:

• Simmer remaining lamb broth until slightly reduced.
• Add 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with cold water to thicken.
• Finish with a small knob of butter for shine.

Drizzle over the lamb just before serving. If you want extra crispiness, place the sprouts cut-side down and broil for the last 3–5 minutes.

Immunity-Boosting Saffron Rice Pilaf (Gluten-Free)

Don’t waste the lamb broth — turn it into a fragrant saffron rice pilaf that pairs perfectly with the roasted lamb.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup basmati rice (naturally gluten-free)
• 2 cups warm lamb broth
• A pinch of saffron threads
• 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
• Salt to taste

Instructions:

1. Rinse the rice until the water runs clear.
2. Soak the saffron in 2 tbsp warm broth for 5 minutes.
3. In a pot, heat olive oil or butter and lightly toast the rice for 1–2 minutes.
4. Add the warm lamb broth and saffron (with its liquid).
5. Cover and simmer on low for about 15 minutes until fluffy.
6. Let it rest 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

Why This Helps Support Immunity

• Lamb broth is rich in minerals, collagen, and amino acids that help support gut health — and a healthy gut plays a key role in immune function.
• Saffron contains powerful antioxidants like crocin and safranal, which help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation.
• Rice provides easily digestible energy, helping the body recover and stay balanced.

Together, this creates a nourishing, warming meal that supports overall wellness — especially during colder seasons.
