I had curried lamb with zucchini and sweet potato. Yum! Super-easy and it really hit the spot.

I wish lamb weren't so damn expensive. ;____; I basically only have it at Passover now.

I normally wouldn't buy lamb, but I got a super-good deal on it -- a friend of a friend is a farmer who does his own butchering, but he only sells the entire lamb. Several of us went in on a couple of lambs to share.

That honestly sounds even better. I bet it's amazingly fresh. Lamb is one of my favorite things.

Is lamb expensive where you live? I'm Australian and lamb is practically our official meat.

Yeah, I don't do my household's grocery shopping, but I would estimate it's at least $8/lb (I'm in Los Angeles). I looked at my local grocery store's website and they don't have any sales (and thus listed prices) on any cut of lamb at all; but regular sale meat items include chicken breast or thighs, pork chops, and beef pot roast for $3/lb, tilapia for $5/lb, and cod for $6/lb. Steaks are around $7/lb, but I think we had just one in all of 2013 and it was during special circumstances.

We haven't eaten a ton of red meat in the last 10 years, but when I was a kid we'd have a nice lamb shoulder or leg (my dad would always joke about "leg of lamb" sounding like "Legolas" and say we were eating elf) at least once a month. And delicious elf it is!

Damn you, that also sounds fantastic.

Oooh. Do you have the recipe?

Sure! (The veggies are in halves because I split them between two meals.)

1 lamb loin chop (about a palm-sized portion of meat)
Half a medium zucchini, chopped fairly big
Half a medium onion, chopped
Half a small sweet potato, chopped (the portion should be about the size of your fist.)
1 clove garlic, chopped
piece of fresh ginger about the size of the tip of your pinky, chopped
1 bloop of olive oil for frying
Madras curry powder to taste

First, boil your chopped sweet potato until it's almost done, so you don't have to wait for it to cook properly in the frying pan.

Heat up a good non-stick frying pan -- I used my trusty cast iron -- and sear the lamb on both sizes. Turn it down and cook the lamb a little more. (Lamb is best rare or medium rare; I like it medium rare.) Add the oil and all the veggies. The pan should be hot enough that the zucchini browns a bit.

Sprinkle the curry powder on your veggies, and some on each side of the lamb. I didn't add any water, so I ended up with a nice dry curry taste.

With a piece of fruit and a glass of milk, this makes a good supper for a diabetic.
