Lamb Meat smell?

Yes I have found vinegar to help.
I am not too fond of whole garam masalas in dishes but if I feel the meat has some smell I use it (cinnamon stick,green cardamom,black cardamom,cloves,peppercorns).Their smell overpowers the smell of the meat.

me neither but you are right about using garam masala. it does help with the smell …

Maktoob, yes unfortunately the smell of lamb is seriously hard to get rid of ! I didnt find it as hard to remove in several other countries, but in the UK, its next to impossible .. I have tried almost every freaking tactic that people told me and still cant eat lamb peacefully !

The maximum you can do is put loads of vinegar on the meat and let it sit in a strainer for at least 20 minutes .. the blood will start getting drained out of the meat .. then before cooking wash it and that reduces it a bit ..

Also, what chips said, add some whole aromatic masala’s to the meat while bhooning it , that also somewhat reduces the smell ..

you know …i thought it was me doing something wrong that it smells so bad…the biggest problem is my husband is fond of eating meat and i have to cook meat dish every other day almost and it is so disappointing to put so much effort in and in the end what you get is smelly lamb pulao and alloo gosht…(which i cooked a day before and will finish it myself today naak band karkay) because kitna insan food banayee aur phainkay:S…but as everyone is suggesting…vinegar and garam masala do help to some extent…vinegar i havent tried but will definitely use inshAllah…

@prototype

I do the vinegar trick, then wash. then boil it in water with some GG and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon powder for 5 minutes, drain and then use for whatever curry/gravy I want to use it in

thora lamba kaam hay but can be done…anything to get rid of this smell…

Thanks everyone for the suggestions:)
