This was my favorite meal my grandmother use to make. She always made browned potatoes and creamed spinach with it. Oh, heavens I can still smell it and taste it all. Although I don't eat Lamb anymore ever. Fact is I don't eat meat much anymore period. I still can dream about the flavors. smells and share her recipe with you. My heart would be broken to think of a baby Lamb dying. And I never eat Veal for the same reason.
