Chinese Spring Onion Lamb

Chinese Spring Onion Lamb

Chinese stir fries are an excellent, quick meal which is delicious and uses very little oil. Chinese rice wine adds a robust flavour that enhances iron rich meats such as lamb. As we know, we need iron to help us to keep mentally on top and to be able to exercise with energy. A great, quick, weeknight dinner.
