STIR-FRIED LAMB WITH EGGPLANT AND CHILES
Lamb shoulder, though far less popular than rib chops or legs, is delicious and juicy. Like the shoulders of pigs and cows, it is a hardworking muscle rippled with intramuscular fat, which makes it ideal for the stewing or braising. It's also the best cut of the whole animal for stir-fries, retaining just the right amount of chew while browning gorgeously. This dish, seasoned with garlic, ginger and red-pepper flakes, can be prepared in less than 15 minutes. It's wonderful alone or served over rice.
