Oriental style rice with seasoned lamb recipe

Oriental style rice with seasoned lamb

My cousin and her children who live in Canada, visit us once every three years. The first day they arrived, I wanted to make something traditional that they haven’t had in a long time, so my husband suggested oriental style rice with seasoned lamb, which is, “accidentally” his favorite dish. It was the perfect start to their holiday, they absolutely loved it! Adopted from Kiri.
