Boiled lamb sauce with tomato paste is a savoury preparation made by simmering lamb and enriching its cooking liquid with tomato paste. It makes use of the meat’s broth as well as the lamb itself, so the result can range from a pourable sauce to a thicker, meat-filled accompaniment.
The flavour combines lamb’s distinctive richness with the concentrated, gently tangy taste of tomato. It works well spooned over rice, potatoes or crusty bread, whether served as part of a home-cooked meal or alongside vegetables. It provides protein, while the tomato paste contributes lycopene. For a lighter plate, use a modest spoonful of sauce and pair it with plenty of vegetables.
