Spicy Lamb Tong Fun

I thought I had pork mince in the freezer. Happily, I took it out and realized that what I had was lamb mince instead! The meal plan was spicy pork tong fun but I thought.. oh well, might as well use lamb mince then!


The thing I like about lamb mince is the robust flavour it adds to the dish. Recently, I made moussaka (future post!) and lamb mince certainly adds more of a rich flavour than beef mince. The same goes for this dish as a little mince goes a long way!
