Roasted lamb ribs in the oven are not just delicious, but simply delicious. Perhaps, on the counter of a butcher’s shop, a cut of lamb called “kare” does not look very appetizing, but this is a real delicacy! If you have not yet succumbed to the temptation to cook lamb ribs at home, correct the situation. After all, the rack of lamb, in addition to being tasty, is also suitable for dietary nutrition. And this juicy and tender meat is cooked quite quickly – a maximum of 20-25 minutes.
So that the lamb dish does not have a specific smell, it is better to remove excess fat. Lamb fat hardens quickly, so the finished lamb dish should be served faster, preferably on warmed plates.
