Lamb can be hard to come by in the US, and tends to be super expensive.
So, an alternative is to use ground/minced lamb, and add the herbs/spices Niall recommended as a marinade, mix together, and form into sausage/link shaped logs. Grill them like a burger. A little pink is OK with lamb.

Technically this would probably be called a kofta, and is usually formed around a skewer and grilled, but works perfectly with the rest of what Niall prepared.

This is an awesome episode! Even better than the duck episode! Everyone in the show seems to be more relaxed about speaking their minds and make small talk (still food related) so it feels more homely and natural than ever. Aaron is such a smart arse! Love it! Keep it up!

This is a bit advanced for a tip segment. Hope our beginner cooks don't find it too difficult. I have a tip: In case some people haven't noticed, when removing the breast, Niall used only the weight of his knife and ran it along the bone several times instead of sawing at it (which I imagine may potentially be a beginners mistake)

IDK what it is like in the UK, but Costco has a Rotisserie Chicken for $5. You can feed at least four people with it. My parents can't buy that roasted chicken often enough.

Favourite show so far. Enjoyed the banter. You guys should shoot hungover and tired all the time!

The equivalent of Kebabs in the U.S. is Gyros, where it's a Greek thing. In Ireland and the U.K. it's seen as a Turkish thing. The Turkish-style version is usually spicey.

I'd say that cumin and turmeric are entirely necessary for humous. They're the core flavour of humous; the garlic is pretty central but the lemon juice is more additional.

Also, the yoghurt and cucumber sauce would be called tzatziki, moreso if it had mint leaves in there, as well.

Tumeric? In hummus? Since when is hummus orange? Maybe a little olive oil and sumac, but not tumeric, if it was being used as a dip.

Anything with Lamb is a godly meal.

I don't mind. He always looked like he was half-asleep. Lauren has a pretty smile and brings more energy to the show.
