Low Carb Lamb Kebabs In A Saffron Gravy
A mouthwatering Lamb kebab (low carb) made with no bread or eggs, just spices and greens, cooked in a spicy saffron yogurt gravy with soft cooking potatoes (omit for a total low carb dish). The best part about this dish is the kebabs are cooked directly into gravy soaking up all the flavor and are deliciously soft when eating with some freshly made roti. I honestly just cooked without measuring so the recipe is estimated measurements.
